Choral Vacancies
Is your choir looking for a music director, accompanist or more singers?
NZCF can help in a number of ways:
- Paid advertising on our website under this section in eBreve
- Concert and Events listings for member choirs (list your event)
- Our 'Find-a-Choir' facility on our home page which is connected to your choir's own online profile: a good reason to keep it updated
- Download information about remuneration for choir directors
Advertisements for vacancies for choir directors, or other key roles, may be placed here for up to three months at a cost of $85 (NZCF member choirs) or $170 (non-members) - this includes up to three insertions in our monthly NZCF eBreve newsletter and the relevant regional events newsletter.

Palmerston North Choral Society is a friendly non-auditioned SATB choir, established more than 100 years ago. We welcome both men and women with a range of abilities and experience who aim to achieve a high standard of performance as well as sharing their love of music.
We practise on a Monday evening with additional sectional practices as required. We sing a wide variety of music including popular sacred works and aim to present three concerts a year which typically include other soloists and musicians. We have participated in workshops and local musical events with other choirs in our region.
We are seeking a Choir Director open to taking the choir in new directions. Ideally the successful applicant would be able to start in the middle of this year or earlier. Two further concerts are planned for this year in early September and the end of the year. An honorarium is payable for the role.
If you are interested in applying or would like to find out more, please contact our accompanist and committee member Myra Smith. myra@dgmfsmith.co.nz
