How to Create Amazing Community in a Rock Choir with Tony Lechner & Rock Voices.Rock Voices sets up Community Choirs who sing Rock Music.  In this episode we unpack this great program, which establishes choirs in communities with no audtion for amatures to bring their voices to life!Tony Lechner is the founder who took this idea and ran with it. After ten years in the making, surviving the Covid Quarintine, this a great story for us to unpack. Our mission statement is “healing ourselves and others through song”.Studies have shown that the sound and sensation of singing in a room with other people works a special kind of magic on us all, including improved mood, focus, deep breathing, social support, cognitive stimulation, and more. Read on to learn how to be part of this amazing experience!Can anyone join Rock Voices?Yes! Anyone 18+ can join. You don’t have to read music; you don’t have to audition to join (but if you want a solo, we hold auditions for those once the season is underway). Just look for a choir near you by going to our enrollment site and once you’ve found a location, follow the instructions for enrolling and paying. You can also just enroll, and hold off on payment until you’ve attended three rehearsals: we want you to experience this and make sure it’s right for you!How does this work?The choir meets for about 12 weeks, rehearsing more songs each week in preparation for a live concert, complete with a live, professional rock band.  At last, you get to actually BE a rockstar!! Still not sure? That’s okay. Just use our online system to enroll, and hold off on payment until you’ve decided. This way we’ll know how much sheet music to print out, and you’ll receive any emails your director sends out prior to the first night of rehearsals.CLICK HERE TO ENROLL TODAY!Connect with The Long Island Sound Podcast Intro/Outro song in this episode: “Fading out Fast” from Mike Nugent’s album, Mike Nugent and the Blue Moon Band .
