Masterworks Registration: Happening Now!
Hi Friends!
Registration for the 1st set of the season is ongoing. Please see the below sections for more info about singer contributions, music packets including pickup details, and rehearsal dates.
Singer Contributions
The social, emotional and financial upheaval of COVID-19 continues to impact all of us. In lieu of regular singer dues for the first half of the season ($200 per singer for two quarters), we ask that you consider making a contribution to Masterworks as close to the dues amount as is comfortable for you. Your contributions are tax deductible, voluntary, and vital to our ability to sustain our choir in this tumultuous time.
You may contribute via our Arts People donation page (designate Singer Contribution as the fund to which you wish to contribute):
You may also make your contribution by check via mail to our PO Box, or with check/cash in person at our music pick-up (see below).
1st Quarter: American Song
Music Packets - and an opportunity to come say "Hello!"
The Music Packet for the first set of the season is $28. We have arranged a safe and socially distanced pick-up outside Transfiguration Episcopal church on Saturday, 8/29 from 10am to noon. Bryan, Steph and Erin, plus a few of your favorite singers from the Engagement Team, will be there to deliver music, wave fondly and call greetings from afar.
If you are unable to make the pick-up, packets can be mailed or dropped to you at home. More details about this and the protocol for music pickup will be included in a follow-up email from our awesome admin Steph.
You can pay for your music with check/cash at the pickup, or pay with a credit card here:
• Elijah Rock, arr. Hogan
• Embraceable You - Gershwin, arr. Shaw
• Fascinating Rhythm - Gershwin, arr. Huff
• How Can I Keep From Singing, arr. Walker
