All you need is to love to sing. You should be able to sing in tune and be fairly good at holding your part when the music divides into several parts. You may or may not already be in a choir but you must be keen to try and willing to spend time learning the music. You will need to have the recommendation of a teacher either from school or your private music teacher. Good manners will be expected so that we can all enjoy the music.
Please be sure to ask a parent or teacher to help you fill in the application form, available by clicking here.
