Mondays and Tuesdays have always been our most sought-after rehearsal night our of PDX Vox’s four options. My theory is that the beginning of the week hits that sweet spot: the rejuvenation after a weekend hasn’t morphed into the mental overload that convinces our brains that anything but a good book or the next episode of a favorite series is too much of a commitment.
(Sidenote: studies have shown that group singing has many benefits for both physical and mental health, so a late-in-the-week choir might be just what the doctor or therapist ordered)
With all of our groups regularly filling up, we decided it was time to take a leap and try adding a sixth group. When we put the word out to our mailing list of interested new singers, a PDX Vox record of 35 new-singer enrollment requests streamed in within the first 3 days! The result is that all of our standing groups have filled, and the new Tuesday group is looking to be a robust combination of eager new-to-Vox singers and enthusiastic longtime members.
As of now, we still have room for a few more, so if you’re considering joining us this semester, let us know by filling out an enrollment form before the first rehearsal on February 4th!
