The Rainbow Chorus is seeking a new Musical Director, to start work with the choir from April 2012.

The only LGBT choir in the South East outside of London is looking for an enthusiastic and committed music professional to lead this long-established group, which comprises some 50 members.

The new Musical Director will lead the choir through the next stage of their musical development.

The choir usually undertakes two major concerts a year, plus a variety of other events for a range of organisations, primarily within the LGBT community and sometimes in partnership with other choirs.

In August 2011, the Rainbow Chorus launched their first CD, featuring selections from their back catalogue

The choir are currently working towards:
• A concert at their home venue, St George’s Church, in June 2012
• A joint World Aids Day concert with Brighton Gay Men’s Chorus in December 2012
 
The Rainbow Chorus has an extensive repertoire, including major choral works by Handel, Elgar and Poulenc.

They rehearse on Monday evenings, at St George’s Church, St George’s Rd, Brighton, BN2 1ED.

An honorarium of £3,200 per annum will be paid monthly.

If you are interested in applying for the post email a CV and letter of application to:
chair@rainbowchorus.org.uk

Include your reasons for wanting to work with an LGBT choir in Brighton.

For more information view their website:

Or email: chair@rainbowchorus.org.uk

The closing date for applications will be:  Friday February 24.

Interviews will be on Saturday March 3 and, on Monday March 12, the final shortlist will lead a 25 minute rehearsal of the whole Chorus.
