Join the 1st U Choir!

Choir season is almost upon us! Our first weekly rehearsal for the 2023 – 2024 choir season will be held in Hull Chapel on August 31 at 7:00 p.m., and our first performance will take place at our Water Communion service on September 10. All members, friends, and guests are welcome to join us!

FAQ

Q: Do I have to be available every week to participate?
A: While regular participation is best, we know life can be busy, and we appreciate any time you can give. If you can commit to even a couple weeks at a time, we’d love to have you!

Q: Which voice parts is the choir looking for?
A: While we are especially in need of tenors and basses, we have plenty of room for all voice parts.

Q: You don’t want me. I can’t sing!
A: That’s not a question, but also that’s not true! If you can talk, you can sing, and we’re not trying to win Grammys, we’re trying to grow musically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually. If you have the will, we’ll teach you everything you need to know!

Q: How can I express interest in joining the choir? 
A: Talk to our Director of Music Adam O’Dell after Sunday service, or send him an email at music@firstuchicago.org.
