Academic Choir
Auditions Schedule:
Friday 24 November, from 5pm to 6:30pm
Tuesday 28 November, from 6:30 pm to 8 pm
The UAL Voices Choir is a project that aims to implement/improve choral practice in the university universe. It will be a group formed essentially by UAL Students, and may, in the near future, be open to the entire school community.
Students will have the opportunity to work in Chorus regularly, happily exploring the abilities of the voice and benefiting from working together, in learning a light and up-to-date repertoire.
Minimum 15 to 20 students (extendable to +10 non-students, at a later stage).
