The A Cappella Singers, a chamber-sized community chorus of adult treble voices based in Natick, Massachusetts, is seeking a new piano accompanist. The choir sings both sacred and secular repertoire in a variety of styles ranging from classical to pop and presents two concerts per year on the first Saturday of December and the first Saturday of May. Most pieces are performed with piano accompaniment.
Rehearsals are Monday evenings from 7 to 9 p.m. at Fisk Memorial United Methodist Church, 106 Walnut Street, Natick.
