CONCERT ETIQUETTE


 In addition to our aim of presenting the highest standards of musical performance, we also aim for high standards of presentation in our concerts. To ensure that we achieve this, we ask all singers to note the following:

·         Please ensure that you follow all the requirements of the concert dress code so that we appear as a smart, well disciplined choir.


  • Line up before going on stage and make a formal entrance as directed by the Chairman/Concert Manager. The concert starts as soon as the choir appears – and before the music begins!
  • Remain standing until given the signal to sit, so that we all sit down together. Make sure you have marked your copy with the ‘Stand’ and ‘Sit’ cues.
  • Do not talk to each other on stage, or try and communicate with members of the audience, as this gives the impression of an undisciplined choir.
  • During the concert, stand to sing on a given signal from the conductor - quietly and together.
  • Turn the pages of your music as quietly as possible, trying not to cause any audible distraction during the performance – particularly during solo passages.
  • At the end of a performance, wait for the conductor’s signal  to stand to take our applause.  DO NOT applaud other performers while you are standing up.
You will be given instructions and reminders during rehearsals prior to a concert, but we expect all choir members to have the personal self-discipline to follow the rules of concert etiquette which help ensure that the Choir looks as good as it sounds.
