Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes, like all members of the audience, you will need a concert ticket.

    Thank you for supporting NWRS through your ticket purchase!

    (Note that there are no “dues” to cover costs for your score or the rehearsal tracks.)

  • Alumni are invited to be part of the NWRS weekend, not just the concert.

    Because you’ll prepare with us at one or both of our Saturday rehearsals (your choice), you’ll have the opportunity to present a polished performance with us, just like when you were singing weekly with NWRS. Please note that “How Can I Keep from Singing?” will be performed with orchestra, so it’s especially important not to simply “walk on.”

    Saturday‘s two rehearsals replace our typical Saturday rehearsal and performance (as you may remember from your seasons with us). Sunday is reserved for warmup and the concert, as always.

    Consider making plans to meet up with fellow alumni and/or current singers on Saturday, outside of rehearsal!

    We included an “alumni save the date” for Saturday, May 16 in several of our general 2025-2026 season emails. We hope that many alumni will choose to participate.

  • NWRS continues to perform in traditional concert attire. Please avoid stripes, prints, and bright colors.

    Please wear something dark and solid (or nearly solid). Consider a light shirt/top with dark pants/skirt.

    Naturally, black-and-white combinations will match NWRS.

  • Yes! At both rehearsal and performance.

    Please avoid personal fragrances May 16-17, especially:

    • perfumes/colognes

    • scented hairsprays

    • scented lotions

    • heavily scented deodorants

    Your consideration helps fellow singers avoid sneezing attacks, watering eyes, and the like. Thank you!

  • There will not be reserved seating for NWRS alumni in Schneebeck Concert Hall.

    During the concert, it’s recommended that you have a seat near an aisle.

    More details will be given at rehearsal so that you know when to leave your seat and where to gather.
