Other information

The Male Voice Choir will cover a range of popular music styles, including traditional and modern songs and shanties.

The Male Voice Choir will also perform in October U3A Seniors Week Concert and on other invited occasions.

Existing Male Choir music can be found at  www.men.souldj.au

REQUIREMENTS: A positive commitment to camaraderie, weekly attendance and performance is important. All men are welcome  experienced or not!
You just need a positive attitude, with an enthusiasm to participate and enjoy singing. The ability to follow music may be helpful, but we encourage learning music by ear rather than the use of printed music, so no music note reading is required.

TUTOR: David is a singer, performer and DJ, who has sung with choirs, organised musical groups, produced shows, and sung in cabaret events in the UK over many years.  In Melbourne he performed often as a Solo Cabaret Singer, has sung as a member of the MSO Chorus and has performed leading roles with the Gilbert and Sullivan Society.

How to Enrol

On-line: after bookings have opened

On-line enrolments are preferred as this significantly reduces the amount of back-office work for our volunteers.

  • Login to the U3APP.org.au website.
  • Go to the Courses & Enrolling page.
  • Scroll down to find the course that you are interested in.
  • Does the course have spaces available?
    • Click on the course name to go to the booking page.
    • Click on “Book for this course or event”.
    • You will receive a confirmation email.  Please check your Junk/Spam folders as these automatically-generated emails often finish up there.

    • Click on WAITLIST.

Paper Enrolment Form: before bookings open for First Semester

  • Obtain a paper Enrolment Form either from the Office or by printing an online copy available here.
  • Complete the paper Enrolment Form and submit it to the Office.

The start date for acceptance of paper Enrolment Forms for first semester is published on the U3APP website and in the e-Bulletin. Enrolment Forms received before this date are treated as though they had been received on the start date (ie there is no advantage to be gained by submitting early). On the start date and thereafter, paper Enrolment Forms are numbered in order of receipt.  Paper Enrolment forms are processed by U3APP volunteers on the same day as on-line bookings.

If your enrolment is successful, you will receive a confirmation email.  Please check your Junk/Spam folders as these automatically-generated emails often finish up there.

If your enrolment is unsuccessful,  you will receive an email telling you that you have been waitlisted.
