Fall 2026 Information

Dates:

Our season will run on Thursday evenings from September 10, 2026 – January 14, 2027 from 6:30 – 8:30 pm. There will be no rehearsals on December 24 & 31 during winter break.

Location:

We rehearse in the band room at Bayside Middle School at 1101 Newton Pl, Brentwood Bay, BC.

Repertoire:

Our theme for Season 16 is Our World in Kaleidoscopic Colour. Colours, like music, awaken aspects of our human experience that words and intellect alone cannot. Artists have been using music and colour to evoke emotion and help us make sense of the world forever. Join us as we celebrate the richness and diversity of our kaleidoscopic lives through a spirited collection of colourful songs!

Concert:

Our Winter concert will be at Mary Winspear at 3:00 pm on Saturday, January 16, 2027, with a dress rehearsal on Friday, January 15, 2027.

Fees:

$200 for the Fall season. Island Song is run on a not-for-profit basis. Payment is due by the second week of practice or can be split into two payments if needed. If you are in need of financial assistance to participate, please reach out to discuss further. 

Refund policy:

  • If a member decides to drop out within the first two rehearsals (through Sep 17), they will receive a full refund.
  • If a member decides to drop out after two rehearsals and up to four rehearsals (through Oct 1), they will receive a refund minus a $60 fee.
  • After four rehearsals (after Oct 1) no refund will be offered, although extenuating circumstances will be considered.

Expectations:

  • Members are expected to attend as many rehearsals as possible. If you are aware that you will miss more than two rehearsals during the season, please let us know. If you miss a rehearsal, please ensure that you listen to the recording so you’ll know what was taught.
  • Members are expected to do some practicing on their own time in order to become familiar with the material and reinforce what we learn during rehearsals. The amount of time spent will vary depending on your ability and comfort level. Sing in your car, your shower, or wherever you can find a moment!

Illness policy:

  • Please do not attend choir if you are ill.
  • Rehearsals will be recorded for those unable to attend any given rehearsal; these recordings will be stored within the members materials drive.
  • Mask wearing is optional whilst singing together. Please respect others’ individual decisions to either mask or unmask in our choir.
