Local Vocals is a beginner-friendly choir for adults aged 18 and over who are interested in discovering or rediscovering the joy of singing in a relaxed and supportive environment. No prior vocal experience is required, making this ensemble ideal for those new to music or returning after an extended break.
Rehearsals focus on building essential vocal skills, including pitch accuracy, rhythmic awareness, breath control, and healthy vocal production. Members explore a range of accessible and enjoyable repertoire designed to encourage participation and musical confidence. Singing in a group allows participants to experience the satisfaction of blending voices while developing listening and ensemble skills.
The ensemble also provides valuable social benefits. Local Vocals fosters a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere where adults can connect with others, form friendships, and enjoy the shared experience of creative music-making. This sense of community supports motivation, consistency, and personal well-being.
Local Vocals performs at selected Conservatorium events throughout the year, giving members the opportunity to celebrate their progress in a low-pressure performance setting. The choir offers an enjoyable and meaningful pathway for adults to engage with music, build confidence, and experience the positive effects of group singing.
Local Vocals rehearses on Thursdays from 5:30–6 pm at the Conservatorium
Rehearsals are directed by Brookie Gillett
