South Jakarta Community Choir FAQs
South Jakarta Community Choir – Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Do I have to audition for the choir?
A. No. It is open to all keen singers of all abilities. Just turn up, no need to audit!
Q. Who is the choir open to?
A. The choir is open to all: expatriates and Indonesians. It is a community choir so we like the cosmopolitan feel of a truly mixed choir. The choir is secular; we are not ‘religious’ in any way or form. The key thing is to have fun and enjoy singing as a group.
Q. What sort of music does the choir sing?
A. We sing music from all genres: world music, popular music, golden oldies, show tunes and the odd surprise!
Q. Do I have to be able to read music?
A. No. It is certainly helpful, but quite often our musical director provides us with a CD recording of a song we may be rehearsing. Some of our choristers are musically literate and can also assist.
Q. What if I don’t know what part to sing?
A. Our awesome musical director will assist you in finding the ‘best fit’ for your voice. Quite often our choristers switch from one voice part to another.
Q. When does the choir year begin and end?
A. The choir year begins in August and ends in June for 2010-11. From year to year this may change.
Q. How often do you have concerts?
A. We try to have at least two concerts a year. One in Nov/Dec and one in May/June.
Q. I am not interested in singing, but would like to know about concert dates, or to help organise a concert. Who do I contact?
A. The choir is currently forming a Friends of the SJCC. To join our mailing list for concert dates or to help organise future concerts, please contact Dave O’Brien, Recruitment and Communications – sthjktcomchoir@gmail.com
Setiap vokalis memiliki pandangan ideal akan bagaimana menjalankan karir musiknya. Dari semua pilihan karir seorang vokalis, baik itu menjadi pelatih vokal, vocal director, vokalis band, yang paling diminati adalah menjadi penyanyi solo (recording solo artist). Jalan untuk menjadi penyanyi solo tidak mudah, bahkan ketika kemampuan vokal seseorang sangat memumpuni, tidak menjamin ia bisa menjalankan karir sebagai penyanyi solo yang sukses. Berbeda dengan vokalis band yang segala sesuatunya dikerjakan secara bersama-sama dan mengandalkan teamwork.
