Friends Membership Terms and Conditions
Founded in 2009, New Egham Singers was formed under the umbrella of Egham and District Choral Society with the following objectives in mind:
“To Educate the Public in the Arts and Sciences and in particular the Art and Science of Music in the presentation of Concerts and other activities.”
(2014: EDCS Constitution, 2.1).
We aim to achieve this objective by rehearsing a varied repertoire of music each term leading up to charitable concerts. The music we sing is generally popular (musicals, traditional folk, light classical, and pop), tuneful, and repertoire choice is influenced by members’ input.
Membership of the Society will not usually be subject to audition, but the Society reserves the right to request each member to undertake such test or tests as the musical director may decide are appropriate (2014: EDCS Constitution, 4.2).
We aspire to meet our founding educational aims through engaging in fun rehearsals, concerts for local charities, an annual tour, and a variety of social activities in which members can participate. As of our 10th Anniversary in 2019, NES had raised over £22,000 for local charities and grown in membership to close to 150 singers.
Membership fees will include:
opportunity to take part in NES socials and annual tour, subject to potential additional costs (where space is limited Full Members will be given priority)
opportunity to sign up for the NES newsletter, which is usually emailed weekly during term time
access to the Members’ area of the NES website
the opportunity to assist the choir in a non-singing capacity, for example by providing front of house help at performances, helping set up staging, or any other task where volunteers are needed
an invitation and the right to vote in the AGM and any EGMs.
