SONG ORDER FOR CONCERT
You can find a concert order sheet for you to print at home and keep in your folder HERE.
CONCERT ATTIRE
For the concert on August 1st we will be wearing concert black. It does not need to be fancy, just a solid black top and pants/skirt or a dress will be great. If you have a black choir dress you wear for a different choir, you are welcome to wear that.
CONCERT FORMATION
Because there are so many singers, we are going to be really crafty with our placement on the chancel (stage) There are two rows in the back that are deep enough to have people stand two-deep and staggered, and we will also have a standing row on the floor. However, if all the singers enrolled this semester sing at the concert, we will need to create a row of sitters.
If you would prefer/need to sit for the concert, please contact Mandie McMurdie at [email protected]. I could use 16-18 volunteers to sit. We can have people sit on chairs, as well as have an in-between row of people perched on counter-height (24") stools. Please be aware that if you are one of the sitters, you will need to sit the entire time for visibility reasons.
MUSIC LIGHT
The lighting on the stage in the evening is a little hard on the eyes, so please feel free to bring a clip-on book light. They can be purchased on Amazon for around $10-15, or you can find them at Target as well. Just please be aware of the people around you when using the lights to avoid blinding others.
TICKETS
The concert is FREE but we will require a ticket to be admitted. Please encourage your friends and family to reserve their tickets in advance by visiting www.planocivicchorus.org/tickets.
