WHERE do you rehearse?

SUNDAY rehearsals are 4:30-6:30pm at:

Lawrenceville First Baptist Church

165 N. Clayton St, Lawrenceville, GA 30046

NOTE:

There is a possibility that we’ll open up a 2nd Rehearsal location inside, or just to the north, of I-285. We just have to see how pre-registration goes to see if there would be enough people that would commit to that location.

That location would be a Tuesday evening rehearsal from 6:30-8:00pm

WHAT are the Attendance Requirements?

Of the 12 rehearsals (11 Weekly, 1 Dress Reh.), singers must have 60% season attendance or better to participate in the concerts. (4 absences allowed)

WHAT are the requirements to sing in the GWC?

• High-school age or above.

• Pitch-matching ability.

• Member Fee: $100 - (split payments accepted, non-refundable)

Are AUDITIONS required?

NO. But all new singers will complete a simple vocal exercise with a member of the Music Leadership Team to assess pitch-matching ability and confirm voice part assignment. More details will be provided after a singer has pre-registered.

WHAT is the Commitment?

Once accepted, you have an open invitation to sing with us in both of our Fall and Spring seasons if you’d like. But you only commit to one season at a time based on what is best for your schedule. If you want to sing in the Fall season, but take the Spring season off (or vice versa) that’s fine. Just meet that Season’s attendance policy and you’ll be eligible to perform with us.

WHEN and WHERE will GWC perform?

At the end of each 3-month Season (Fall season & Spring season), we anticipate having 3 performances at different locales in Metro Atlanta. Some of these locations will be churches, but we hope some will be in public venues.

WHAT ELSE should I know?

1) We do MEMORIZE music for our concerts. But you will be given practice tracks that will assist you in learning the material.

2) We STAND a lot. We’re seated for most of our rehearsals, but our concerts run 75-90 mins. You’ll have a few sit-down breaks during performances, but you’ll still stand for the large majority of the performance. If standing or mobility are issues for you, please take these physical requirements into consideration.

3) We need VOLUNTEERS. So if you decide this might not be the right time for you to sing with us, but you’re still interested in helping our ministry, there are plenty of off-stage opportunities available that enable you to be a part of our ministry without having the weekly rehearsal commitment.

WHAT KIND of music do you sing?

We sing a variety of music from arrangements of modern worship songs, hymns, and also powerful choral songs that never get old. If you’re familiar with the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir, we’re a lot like them and sing a lot of their music. The best way to get a feel for what we sing is to visit our YouTube channel by clicking HERE
