Information

Membership Contract

Children’s Choir members are asked to submit a copy of the Membership Contract at their first rehearsal. It should be signed by the singer and their parent or guardian. The contract outlines the expectations of participating in the choir, including attendance, behavior, and concert dress; it also serves as a medical release and release of information for publicity purposes.

Handbook

The Dubuque Chorale Children’s Choir Handbook covers everything choir members and parents need to know about the organization. It includes contact information, rehearsal schedules, weather cancellation procedures, tuition and scholarship policies, what to bring to rehearsals, what to wear to concerts, the Children's Choirs code of conduct, and a calendar of rehearsals and concerts for the entire season.

Calendar

The 2026-27 Children’s Choirs Calendar sheet shows all the rehearsal and performance dates for the 2026-27 season. The online calendar contains the same information, but will have the latest information if anything changes during the season.

FAQ

During the placement interview, your singer will get a chance to meet the directors. They will listen to your singer's voice by asking them to sing Happy Birthday. This gives the directors the opportunity to see how high and low your singer can sing to see where their voice really shines. Additionally, the directors will ask your singer to match a pitch from the piano and from a voice. This is NOT an audition; it's merely a chance to get to know your singer and their voice before we begin rehearsals.
