Get Involved
There are a number of ways to get involved with the chorus. We have opportunities for both singing and non-singing members. Whatever your interest, we can find ways for you to be an active part of our community.
Become a Singer
We welcome all singers who can sing in the TTBB (tenor, baritone, and bass) vocal range.
​​
We rehearse on Tuesday evenings from 7:00pm - 9:00pm near downtown Milwaukee. Reach out for specific location information.
​
We have several singing cycles/seasons each year. Typically a Fall cycle running from September through December and a Spring cycle from January through June.
Joining
We do not do formal auditions for the chorus. Our artistic director will meet with each prospective new member to listen to their voice and determine range and appropriate section.
The chorus is a space for all to be welcome. You do not need to be an expert at reading music to be part of the chorus. Our director works with all members to understand the music, regardless of your music ability. We also provide learning audio tracks.
​
Those interested can attend one of the first rehearsals of the cycle.
Being a Singing Member

The chorus supplies music for all members.

Each member is expected to provide their own black binder to hold their music (or a tablet if you prefer digital music)

-
Rehearsals are on Tuesdays from 7pm - 9pm near downtown Milwaukee. Reach out for specific location details.
-
Concert dress is discussed for each concert. Our dress tends to be "all black" with members being able to wear the clothes in which they are most comfortable.
Non-Singing Members
Anyone can support the mission of the chorus by joining us as a non-singing member. People who would like to contribute their time and talents behind the scenes to make the music happen are a vital part of making Our Voice Milwaukee a community chorus.
Volunteering
We are always looking for people to help the chorus in general volunteer roles from ushering at concerts to helping with ticket sales.
Chorus Leadership
Non-singing members are welcome to get involved with the chorus leadership and serve on committees and also run for board positions.
Event Support
Concerts, fundraisers, and other events require non-singing members to help organize, serve in backstage roles, and support the chorus in a number of ways.
Skills and Talents
Do you have a skill or talent that isn't singing? We would love to have your skills support the chorus. From photography to audio recording and more, your skills can be a valuable asset.
Administrative Roles
Our chorus features a working board and a team of volunteers. We are always in need of people to help organize, make copies, and do other administrative tasks.
Connections
Are you someone who just knows many people and has connections? We can always benefit from those relationships. Help with publicity, solicit funds, and more!
