Out Loud Chorus
New Members
Love singing? Love the LGBTQ+ community? Need a break from the usual 9 to 5? Come sing with Out Loud Chorus - we'd love to have you join us!
For more information, email us at OutLoudChorus@gmail.com
Please get in touch to find out more about what our gatherings will look like during these uncertain times, how we will create safe ways to make music together, and what it means to be a member of OLC this fall!
While our activities will look a little different, our love of music and support for our community continues. We hope you will join us ! Our next new member night will be March 1, 2021.
Our new member nights are (usually) in January and September every year. We rehearse every Monday night, 7-9:30 pm, September through May.
Check us out with no obligation - we're a great group to sing with!
We are an LGBTQ+ chorus in Washtenaw County, rehearsing in Ann Arbor, MI (allies welcome). We produce fun, quality main stage concerts twice a year, and perform at community events year round.
See how we work and meet the chorus and our director, Darin DeWeese. No music background? No problem! All levels of musical experience are welcome! We are non-auditioned so there's no pressure (just be able to match pitch)--there's no obligation to join. Meet some wonderful people, and enjoy yourself! Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, straight allies, queer, questioning - all are welcome!
Questions? Email OutLoudChorus@gmail.com
We have members of all different singing and musical abilities. Our only requirement to sing with the choir is that you are able to match pitch. We have members who don't read music, members with college degrees in music, members who have never sung with a choir before and members who have sung with professional touring choirs, and probably everything else in between. We are a non-auditioned choir. You will be asked to sing a little for our director so we can help decide which section you will sing in. If you are under 18, we will provide a consent form needing to be signed your parent or legal guardian.
Out Loud Chorus does have attendance and dues policies that we will be happy to explain when you visit us. Even if you think you can't afford it, please come and try us out. We have sponsorships available. No one will be turned away for the inability to pay choir dues. There are also roles available for non-singing members! If you don't like to sing, but you love the Out Loud Chorus, you can play an integral part! We often need the help of choreographers, dancers and musicians. We also often need people to help with producing the concerts, preparing the reception, helping with fundraisers and marketing and other similar tasks.
