The Barberellas are looking for a new musical director with immediate effect.
At the Barbershop Music Festival many got to know our wonderful musical director Sebastian Dahmen, who unfortunately had to quit due to relocation and private reasons.
We enjoy performing, regularly participate in competitions and most of all have fun singing.
It is important to us that the new musical director has enthusiasm for music, rhythm and movement and can convey this to the choir and the audience. Experience in choral conducting and conducting barbershop, jazz or pop is desired. The position will be paid.
Rehearsal is always on Wednesdays, from 19:30 to 22:00 in Bonn-Lessenich.
