Job Title:
Choral Director
Description:
The Providence-based LLC ( https://www.lifelonglearningcollaborative.org/ ) is looking for a Choral Director to run a weekly, non-auditioned, mixed choral group. The Chorus will be run as a class, running for three ten-session semesters during the Spring, Fall, and Winter terms (day and time to be discussed.)
The Choral Director will be expected to choose and order appropriate sheet music, teach the singers (most of whom do not read music) their sections, run rehearsals, and accompany the singers on keyboard during rehearsals and any performances.
People in the LLC are mainly of retirement age. Music could be a combination of American standards, songs of the 60s-90s, relevant holiday music, and whatever else the Choral Director and the singers find appropriate.
The LLC will be in charge of signing people up (capping the class at a number the Choral Director finds feasible,) collecting tuition and materials fees, and communicating with class members about class schedules, snow days, etc. Classes are held on the East Side of Providence. The LLC will pay the Choral Director directly. Previous outside instructors have been paid $90-$100 per class.

Job Title:
CONDUCTOR- DAYTIME SENIOR CITIZENS ORCHESTRA
Description:
The Providence Civic Orchestra of Senior Citizens (PCO) is seeking a Music Director/Conductor who is interested in working with a restarting organization with a long and proud history. The Director would be responsible for selecting music pieces for the orchestra to prepare and perform, in consultation with the Program Committee of the organization; to prepare in advance of rehearsal and performance; to determine placement, position and music part of the orchestra members; to organize and conduct the rehearsals and performances, and other music related activities of the orchestra.
THE ORCHESTRA
Founded in 1977, the PCO performs day time concerts at senior citizen facilities such as residential complexes, senior centers and long-term care facilities, with the objective of providing musical enjoyment to those who may not otherwise have opportunity to enjoy live orchestral music. Music selections are weighted to popular music of the audience’s era, patriotic tunes, and short selections from classical works.
The PCO also provides educational programs at elementary schools to demonstrate instrumental music performance and the characteristics of various instruments, foster appreciation for live music performance, and encourage students to learn an instrument. The orchestra performs statewide in RI, and nearby areas of MA. Rehearsals are held in Providence, currently at the Elmhurst Health and Rehabilitation.
THE BACKGROUND
Prior to the COVID shutdown, the PCO rehearsed every Thursday and offered over 40 performances per year on Fridays. 20 to 24 musicians would perform each week from a roster of about 30 members. As the pandemic took hold, rehearsal facility was closed and the group was barred the senior citizen and school venues. Our long-time Executive/Music Director/Conductor passed away, and many elderly members lost the strength to participate. Nevertheless, a core group of dedicated members continued to gather and play together, even utilizing outdoor locations; as featured by Mark Patinkin in the ProJo in September of 2020. The group’s expenses have been funded by donations by the performance facilities, an annual fund raising concert, and solicited private donations.
Currently, the group is rehearsing weekly with 9-13 members any given week. Since June, 2022, we have given 6 concerts. Conducting is done by an untrained orchestra member.
THE OPPORTUNITY
The PCO is looking for a person who is available for daytime activity, interested in providing a service to elders, will enjoy working with senior citizen musicians, and will enjoy the challenge of helping to rebuild an historic, well-regarded organization. The PCO has funds to support a rebuilding period of several months to recruit and rehearse, until a performance level is reached that will ensure a steady performance income stream. There are several dozen facilities which have long welcomed the orchestra to perform and we anticipate being able to return to them.
STIPEND - a stipend will be paid; amount to be discussed with candidate.
