Wareham Choral Society (WCS) seek to appoint a trainee assistant conductor. Are you looking for more experience with an amateur choir? Would you like to try out conducting with a friendly group of people? Are you interested in sitting in on rehearsals, assisting with warm up's, conducting some pieces, with feedback from a more experienced conductor? Would you like to deputise and take rehearsals occasionally, and have a chance to conduct part of a concert or lead part of a workshop day? This is a position open to all ages and to help a beginner/early stage conductor gain skills and experience.
WCS are a small registered charity and thus are currently only able to offer a travel allowance for weekly rehearsals. However, any rehearsals, workshops or concerts for which the trainee deputises for the Musical Director will be paid a suitable fee agreed between the trainee and WCS. WCS meets in Lady St March Church, Wareham, Dorset at 1930-2130 Mondays term time and performs at least 2 concerts per year.
