VERY IMPORTANT:

We need a maximum of 40 singers from which a MAJORITY will come from BCC members. However, since we have NOT been having 40 BCC members at our regular singing engagements, I will need to draw on outside sources to fill my quota. If you, as a BCC member decide to sing, it will need to be a confirmed plan. I will add in the voice parts I need AFTER I find out what is needed. Since 6 of the selected songs are already in BCC’s repertoire, we will be asking outside singers for a mandatory participation to all 4 of the rehearsals for this event which are indicated on the calendar as April 13, 15, 27, 29. It would be GREAT if you could attend these 4 rehearsals as well.
