Market Street Singers on the lookout for more members

market st singersThe Market Street Singers are on the lookout for local choral singers to join their ensemble. The group are a non-audition, volunteer community choir that has been a staple of the Ballard community for the past eight years.

The choir currently has 85 members and are looking for more to join their for their winter season. They will be singing a Vivaldi masterpiece, in addition to other songs.  Choral singers of all ages and ranges (soprano, alto, tenor and bass) are encouraged to join and male voices are especially wanted, especially tenors and basses.

The Market Street Singers will be hosting their Festival of Favorites Community Sing-along Event this Sunday, January 26th and it would be a great opportunity for any interested singers to meet the choir! The event will be held at Ballard First Lutheran Church (2006 NW 65th St) at 3 p.m.

“The MSS is a choral ensemble for Ballard that builds connections within  diverse communities. Celebrating the joy of choral music among singers  and listeners, they aspire to cultivate neighborhood pride with choral  arts that are truly community identified,” writes choir member Brandy Rinck.

The chorus rehearses under  the direction of Chris Vincent, on Tuesday nights from 7 to 9 p.m., at the Ballard NW Senior Center (5429 32nd Ave NW).
