You will be responsible for the putting together of all music for a local concert. This will require constant changing of keys, length and styles of songs most weeks working from home for an average of 4 hours per week. You will also be available for 1 hour per fortnight to attend rehearsal and give advice on harmonies and arrangements. These harmonies are to be in a female pitch (even if the successful candidate is a man) as the group are unable to differentiate between a male and female tone. At these sessions you must be prepared, also, to take advice from the lesser-experienced members of the group, who sometimes, although being women, think they should sound like men.
The last 2 rehearsals before concert you will be required to attend for up to 3 hours. Included in these 3 hours you must erect and take down rehearsal equipment. On concert night you should be at the venue no later than 4pm to erect show equipment. You will then be in control of the sound until the end of the show at about 10:30pm when you will take the equipment down. (You may have 2 or 3 helpers with this).
You will be available throughout the year for various group appearances in the summer and Christmas periods. You will also be responsible for all group publicity, which includes posters, programs, website design and updates.
