Dear Fellow OS Choir members,
We have members who probably don’t even know that we have a choir covenant, let alone, have ever seen it or read it. And we have had a few rehearsals of late that suggest (to me, at least) that we might need to be “called back” to our covenant. This was developed a few years ago under different choir leadership, so if you have any suggestions for changes to improve it, let’s begin a discussion when we are all together for rehearsal (e.g., at the end of rehearsal).
Peace,
Dave J
