Add Your Voice to Ours

The Liberty Community Chorus is a SATB, non-auditioned choral group of 80+ singers from across the Kansas City metropolitan area. The Chorus continues to welcome new members who are at least 16 years old and who have minimum or better music reading skills.

Because we strive to attain the highest possible level of excellence in performance, members are expected to diligently attend rehearsals and model a professional attitude for other singers.

Rehearsals are typically held on Thursday evenings from 6:45-9:15 p.m. in Liberty.

Member dues are $45 for each session (sessions include the rehearsals and performance of a single concert). Students (age 16-22) are not charged membership dues. Dues should be paid by the first rehearsal of each session, and can be paid either in-person or online. Other performances may be added. If this occurs, singers will be given ample notice of any additional fees for music.

Because the Liberty Community Chorus is a 501(c)(3) organization, dues are considered tax deductible.

Member scholarships are available for those in financial need. To receive a scholarship application form, contact Bryan Taylor, artistic director, or a member of the Chorus Board of Directors. Scholarship applications are reviewed for approval on a case-by-case basis by the Board of Directors..

At the start of each concert session, singers complete a registration process and pay his/her member dues. The cost of music for each season is included in member dues. At the time of registration, singers receive a singer number and his/her music. When the music is distributed, singers are asked to compare their scores with the detailed repertoire list handed to them. If a singer’s music is incomplete, the Chorus Librarian or the Membership Chair should be notified at the first rehearsal. Some of the music is borrowed from schools and churches so members are asked to mark their scores with a pencil and treat their music gently. Each singer is to return his/her music along with their singer number after each concert performance. The singer is responsible for the cost of replacing any music that is not returned.

Once rehearsals have begun, singers are urged to check their email regularly for rehearsal expectations, music notes, and other information pertinent to each rehearsal.

If a rehearsal must be cancelled because of inclement weather or other unforeseen circumstances, singers will be contacted through email, text message, or via phone. Inclement weather postings also may be found on the Liberty Community Chorus Facebook page. Members are urged to subscribe to LCC’s social media channels.
