WHERE & WHEN DO YOU PRACTICE?
Our choir rehearsals are each Tuesday from 11-12:30. Our showchoir/performance/choreography classes meet at various class times through the afternoon (1:00-2:00, 2:00-3:00, 3:00-4:00). Additionally, we offer a performance group for our older students/experienced singers. Their day starts at 10am and finishes at 4pm.
We rehearse September-November (break for Thanksgiving week), we do not rehearse in December, instead we participate in ministry season, and then we meet back up from January-May.
We are currently meeting in Tomball, Texas near 99/249.

WHAT IS MINISTRY SEASON?
Ministry season is the MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR! For real, though! Our students say their most favorite part of choir is the time they spend in Ministry Season each year!
Ministry season begins the week after Thanksgiving and lasts through about the 2nd week of December. Ministry season is 100% optional, but during the course of the season we could participate in 30-60 mini concerts all over the city of Houston. We enjoy carpooling and eating meals together at favorite restaurants & even enjoy some picnics at local parks through those couple of weeks as schedules allow.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING AN AUDITION?
WHILE AN AUDITION MAY SOUND SCARY... IT REALLY ISN'T! THE PRIMARY PURPOSE IS TO SEE WHERE YOUR VOICE WILL MOST ENHANCE THE CHOIR! NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY TO JOIN JOYFUL SOUND. WE HAVE A PLACE FOR EVERYONE! AUDITIONS ARE SOMETIMES SCHEDULED PRIOR TO YOUR FIRST DAY OF CHOIR, BUT SOMETIMES WE WILL HOLD AUDITIONS DURING A REGULAR REHEARSAL DAY.
