Please include your contact information, vocal part and if available your bio, head shot (jpeg format), any music file you may have of your vocal repertoire/performance, and resume.

Q. I love to sing, but I am not the best sight reader. Is there help available for additional learning?

YES! The LSC is a singer friendly environment. We provide high quality CD's for each vocal part and offer sectional rehearsals prior to our normal rehearsal time.

Q. What is your rehearsal attendance policy?

The LSC recognizes people have commitments to work and family. However, to best serve our organization, its members, contributors and audience - it is imperative to attend rehearsals; not only for your own knowledge of the particular piece of music in rehearsal, but out of respect and consideration for the music director and fellow choristers who attend rehearsals on a regular basis.

Due to the limited amount of rehearsal time, we cannot continue to "re-teach" the vocal parts of the previous weeks work and efforts. In the event you miss three rehearsals, it is at the discretion of the music director to review your vocal part independently from a regular rehearsal time to determine your knowledge and ablities of your vocal part. It is at that time the music director will determine your participation for that particular session/concert.

Please note: The Lebanon Symphony Orchestra is a contracted organization with members attending all of their required/contracted rehearsal/performance sessions. If an LSO member is unable to attend any required rehearsal, they are not contracted for that particular concert event. In the event of illness or an emergency they are to contact the Orchestra Manager immediately.

Q. In case of bad weather and a rehearsal needs to be canceled, where do I find updated informaiton?

There are three ways in which the LSOC provides this information. One, on the web. Go to members cafe click message board. Two, call the LSOC office for a recorded message 513.228.0346 and three tune into Channel 12 WKRC, WKRC radio, WEBN, Mix 94.1, KISS-FM, Fox 92.5. This season we hope to also implement a phone calling tree.
