FAQ:
Q: Do I have to read music to join the Ukiah Community Choir?

The Ukiah Community Choir is a group for people who love to sing! The purpose of the Ukiah Community Choir is to have fun singing together—we welcome all skill and experience levels. We draw music from many different cultures, styles and traditions, and welcome people from all (or no) spiritual or religious practices. We believe that music, and perhaps especially group singing, has the power to uplift the soul, knit communities together, and heal singers and listeners alike.
