Welcome to the Living Room Choir, Fall Session 2024!

This session we are thrilled to introduce a Kids’ Corner, meaning that kids who attend and don’t want to be in the singing group the whole time will have another activity to engage in. We suggest a $5-10 donation per child attending, to help cover the cost of art supplies and paying our Kids’ Corner holders. We will have 3 siblings, Sagan, Tesla, and Lilia, coming through to offer support: most weeks it will likely be Lilia. We’re so excited!

What’s the difference between LRC and Grace Notes?

LRC (Living Room Choir) is our main event and has been meeting since 2015. Ever evolving, it has some sustaining characteristics:

  • Non-audition, no musical experience necessary
  • We sing as communal experience; this experience is far more important to us than the proficiency of the musical outcome
  • No minimum attendance requirement
  • Come as you are: if the best you can do is roll in there late, in your pajamas, finishing your lunch, just do it. We’ll be thrilled to see you
  • Full access to the Teaching Tracks
  • Full access to the Kids’ Corner
  • Full invitation to participate in the Community Sing, potluck, and other community events
  • You’ll receive weekly emails with updates
  • No required musical homework

Grace Notes is new as of Spring 2024, and existed before this as small groups that would pop up organically alongside Living Room Choir in previous years. This is a self-selected group of folks who are helping shape what it will become. For now you can expect:

  • Non-audition, but some musical proficiency or musical comfort level is necessary
  • Commitment to the schedule, including punctuality
  • A commitment and willingness to catch yourself up outside of rehearsal if you feel behind or have to miss some weeks (your fellow Gracies will likely be happy to help)
  • Full access to the Teaching Tracks
  • Commitment to participate in the Community Sing, potluck, and other LRC community events
  • You’ll receive weekly emails with updates
  • You may receive musical homework at times
  • You’ll get to work on more complex music, at a faster pace
  • We’ll expect to be able to count on you in LRC as strong singers who can “anchor” parts if needed

We can’t wait to sing with you!
