Ever thought about joining a local choir to make new friends in your community and sing some beautiful music? Maybe you’ve told yourself that you’re “not good enough” or you feel like it’s just “not for you”? Sounds like you should gie Paisley Opera a go!
We’re holding our annual “Gie us a Go!” session on Monday 2nd of June 7-9pm at the Tannahill Centre to offer a no-pressure taster to everyone interested in joining us. It doesn’t matter whether you’re an opera buff or have never sung a note before! Paisley Opera is free to join, and there will always be a cup of tea and a biccy during rehearsals!
But Paisley Opera isn’t just a choir – we put on full operas with costumes and staging and get to sing alongside pro opera singers and orchestra! It’s exciting, but nothing to be afraid of – we always sing our operas in a special “Paisley” translation, so you’ll never have to worry about learning foreign languages. You don’t need to be able to read music and we’ll have guide tracks for all of the music to help with your learning. It’s also free to join! We’re open to all experience levels because we believe that everyone can, and should sing!
Besides, this taster session is a chance for you to “gie us a go” with zero stress and zero commitment. So if you never want to come back again, that’s completely fine (although we hope you might like to stay!)
