Choir Requirements
It is definitely helpful for choir members to have previous choral experience, but it's not a requirement. As a general guideline we would prefer members with at least two years' experience in a high school, college or church choir, but if you just love to sing and feel called to do this, we'll do our best to find a place for you.
You will be expected to memorize all music. A typical repertoire for a year will consist of 30-36 songs roughly divided between two-thirds congregational worship music (hymns and choruses) and one-third choral anthems.
A choir member should be able to stand for 30-45 minutes at a time in a performance. We will try to accomodate anyone who is not able to do this, but since we don't have control over the situation in every venue we perform in, it may not be possible.
General Requirements
- You must be at least 18 years of age. No older than 140.
- You must be able to provide your own transportation to rehearsals and performances in the Treasure Valley (roughly Ontario on the west, Mountain Home on the east.)
- You must provide your own outfit. Basically we ask everyone to wear combinations of solid black and red, in a modest and appropriate style.
- You must be able to attend regular rehearsals on the first and third Monday of each month from 6:45 PM to 8:30 PM. No child care is provided. (Band members may have a later rehearsal start time of 7:30 PM.)
- You must generally be available for performances. TVV typically will only schedule performances on Friday evening, Saturday afternoon or evening, or Sunday afternoon or evening. These times were selected so that you may continue to participate in any ministries you are involved in at your own church without too much disruption. We understand that sometimes there will be conflicts in scheduling, but we want you to make performances a priority. Performances will include call times 30 to 60 minutes before the scheduled performance time.
- You must regularly attend a local church and hopefully be involved in the ministries of that church.
- You must sign a lifestyle statement affirming that you will live a Christ-centered lifestyle and abstain from abuse of alcohol, tobacco and drugs and sexual immorality.
- You must pay a $10 registration fee when you join TVV, and $25 annual dues for each calendar year you are a member. This money is to help defer the cost of our music and equipment.
