A VOCAL group in Hyndburn is looking for singers and a musical director to join its ranks.

The A Cappella Singers has vacancies for two altos, two tenors and possibly a soprano.Candidates should be able to read music to a reasonable standard and blend in with the other members.

The group is a member of the National Federation of Music Societies and rehearses on Wednesday nights in Wilpshire.

Plans are well under way for the Christmas concert in December, and the charity concert to be held in April in aid of the county air ambulance.

Organisers are also on the lookout for new venues and charities needing their services, and free dates are available for late spring and the rest of 2003.

The group's musical director, Chris Gill, will be leaving at the end of this year, creating a vacancy for his replacement.

For more information on the A Cappella Singers and the vacancies call chairman David Cockett on 01254 885949 or Martin Sales on 01254 885365.
