Get Involved

Membership Information for Prospective Members

Cantigas Women's Choir encourages all prospective members to join us for our first few rehearsals at the start of each semester (early September and January) so that you may get a sense of our culture and decide whether we are a right fit for you. Our members vary in age, ethnic and cultural backgrounds, and musical education. We sing songs that amplify the voices of the lesser-heard and that are from an international perspective.

When/where does the choir rehearse?

Rehearsals for Spring 2025 begin in January, taking place at St. Matthew Trinity Lutheran Church, 798 Hudson Street, Hoboken, on Tuesday evenings from 7pm to 9pm. Please consider joining us! (Please enter the rehearsal space through the side door on 8th street.)

Accessibility

We welcome individuals of all abilities and backgrounds to become members of our choir. Let us know if you have specific needs or concerns about accessibility to participate fully in rehearsals or performances before you come.  We will work with you to provide access to rehearsal spaces and make adjustments to ensure you can participate comfortably. 

• Cantigas rehearsal accommodations include preferential seating for people with mobility restrictions and/or hearing impairments.

• Learning Support: If you require communication assistance for learning the music, we can provide large print lyric sheets or audio rehearsal tracks. 

• A Zoom rehearsal option is available in the event that a rehearsal space is temporarily inaccessible. When on a Zoom, closed captioning is available for presentations. Zoom rehearsals are also available for the immunocompromised. Advance permission is required to access Zoom for rehearsal.

• Service Animals: Service animals are welcome at our rehearsals as long as the location's policies allow them. If you have a service animal, please inform us in advance so we can make appropriate arrangements.
