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

• 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:
