Joyful Voices has made a conscious decision not to grow the choir’s size any further than our current 60+ members and focus instead on developing the choir musically into the very best gospel choir we can be.

The strong ongoing interest in joining the choir has required that we move away from our original “open to all” paradigm to a closed “by invitation only” model, for lack of a better term.

We welcome inquiries and we will get back to you if we think we may have a place for you. Besides vocal ability, we also are looking for fun, energetic, engaged people who take their commitment to the choir seriously. Being willing to travel with the choir on our summer tours is a plus as well.

Don’t despair if we don’t have space for you to sing with us! EVERYONE is welcome at our new monthly gospel sings; no experience necessary. Just come and have fun learning marvelous gospel songs from the one and only Donnell Patterson.

First Monday Mass Choir” open sings will be held on the FIRST MONDAY of every month, starting on November 5, 2018 at the First Parish in Watertown, 35 Church St. from 7:30-9:00PM

There will be $20 participation fee per person per session.
