Call for Male Voices

🎶 Calling Tenors & Basses – Sing with Cantando in 2026 🎶

Ever been told “you’ve got a good voice” but never done anything about it?
Sang years ago and think it’s too late to come back?
Or just love good music and a good laugh?

Cantando Choir is strengthening its male voice sections for 2026, and we’d love more tenors and basses to join us.

You don’t need to be a professional singer.
You don’t need to read music perfectly.
You do need a willingness to give it a go.

What you’ll get:

• Choral repertoire with strong, satisfying male voice parts

• A welcoming, mixed-age choir (no egos, no divas)

• Weekly rehearsals that are focused, friendly, and enjoyable

• Performances to work towards

Many of our men hadn’t sung since school. Now they wouldn’t miss a rehearsal.

🎼 Curious? Come along, sing, and see if it’s for you — no pressure.
🎶 Tenors & basses especially encouraged.

📍 Rehearsals: Tuesdays at 7pm, St John’s Methodist Church, corner of Wellington and Grey Streets
📩 Get in touch: info@contando.org.nz

Give your voice something to do in 2026.
