Magic City Chorus Guest Night

Magic City Chorus Held a Guest Night September 13th, 2022

Magic City Chorus is igniting the sound!  We had a great response to our Guest Night on September 13th with 9 women attending our rehearsal.  We advertised for our Guest night by word of mouth, posters in and around Saskatoon, Fall Leisure Guide, TV, Radio and online. 

The evening included our usual vocal and physical warmups, with lots of fun singing numerous tags and 4 part harmony warm ups. We gave the guests many opportunities to discover the different voice parts.

We learned a new song “Sing and Celebrate”.  The guests self selected the voice part they would like to sing, we went into sections and then culminated in singing on the risers with the whole chorus.  We have found that the more they sing with us the better.

We followed up with an e-card thanking them for coming. The card included a photo of them on the risers with us and an audio recording of them singing the song they learned.

One of the guests said, “Tell us the truth - are you always this much fun or is it just for tonight?”. We think we made a great impression. All of them said they would be back the next week; this was so exciting!

True to their word, that very next week all our guests returned.  Once voice placed by the Director Team, they were on the risers discovering what a full rehearsal with Magic City Chorus was like.

It was a very successful Guest Night, and we are excited to see what the next few weeks, leading up to the auditions, will bring. Stay tuned!!!

It is always great to have new members.  It seems to breathe new life into the chorus.

We really do have something to “Sing and Celebrate “.
