Choir is an ancient art, a singing style with its roots in Italian Renaissance and Greek Tragedies. It is a noble practice ideal for expressing emotions, providing ambiance, strengthening one's voice, even breaking down self-esteem barriers and building confidence. Whether you love to sing, enjoy tending to frogs, or are simply a lover of music seeking like-minded friends, the esteemed Frog Choir is for you!
MEMBERSHIP
  • Singers
    An excellent singer doesn't just have a pretty voice or sense of rhythm. A choir is a community composed of those willing to share a harmony. They should show humility, punctuality, and a willingness to work with others.
    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
  • Frog Handlers
    Handlers play a prominent part in the choir. Whether wanting to support it, or simply seeking an excuse to fawn over amphibians, these members are responsible for the health and enrichment of the singing critters.

IC Rules
───────────────

1. Support choirmates: no "outshining" others.
2. Treat the animals gently and with respect.
3. Only take them out with director's okay.
4. Attend performances whenever available.

───PARTICIPATION───
Practices will be hosted from time to time as an optional IC means of mingling and preparing. While these aren't required, they're highly encouraged. Introduce yourself and get to know fellow choristers! We will perform on some special occasions, such as holidays and events. These aren't obligatory either, but if you choose to skip out on several, I may reach out to see what sort of scenes would entice you. If you haven't been active in choir and you don't log on for several months, you may be removed. Our Discord is optional but highly encouraged, as that's where we'll do most of our planning, with lots of votes held to determine the directions we take.

───ON AMPHIBIANS───
Your character doesn't have to have one to join! If they have a toad as a pet, they may bring it. If not, they'll be allowed to pick one to sing with, however: this isn't to be treated as a "free pet". This animal would be an NPC only available to your character during choir-related scenes. Otherwise, we would be subverting the rule in which pets must be purchased.
"I'll get yer animal. Not a toad, toads went outta fashion years ago, yeh'd be laughed at."
-Rubeus Hagrid
"If I'd brought a toad I'd lose it as quick as I could." - Ronald Weasley
Toads are among the least-loved pets permitted at Hogwarts. Several students who have made this realization were quick to return their mucusy friends to Magical Menagerie, where many an amphibian has gone unpurchased, unloved, left waiting on a shelf. In an effort to provide them with a wholesome home and ample stimulation, the Frog Choir of Hogwarts has adopted some instead, giving these lonesome creatures a newfound purpose.

Please write an example post (200 words) of your character auditioning.
If you've attended an audition event, skip this section!
Your character has entered the Rehearsal Room, where one or more members of the choir are waiting to meet them. If they're a singer, what song do they sing? Make sure to mention meeting the frog they've paired with. If they're a handler, what do they know about amphibians?

OOC: I think this is a neat way to bring people together with something from the lore. IC: Santario loves to sing and she is used to taking care of frogs.

Cecily loves to sing and also needs to get out more. She is less enthusiastic about the frogs but has nothing against them.

In another life, Pericles' mother is a High Priestess, so it felt natural enough for him to become invested in learning Gregorian chant. It's a beautiful but eerie singing style that played well into his strangeness. This carried over easily enough when his story was translated into the Wizarding World- I like to think she still encouraged a clear singing voice throughout his homeschooling. He would be glad to get involved in something like this to keep up on his practice, meet other choir-style singers, look after a really cool frog, and perform for the entertainment of his schoolmates.

OOC I just think the concept is charming as all get-out, I love this choir in the movies.

Why are you interested in Frog Choir? 'I've always been interested in caring for animals, and I adore singing and theatre. I've sung small parts of my favourite songs for years, and I was in choir during primary school. This sounds like a fun opportunity to flex both interests.

Voice Type (Alto/Soprano/etc): Mezzo-Soprano
Why are you interested in Frog Choir?
OOC, I want Thora to join a few clubs and get out there. It's a good opportunity for Thora the little hermit to meet a few people.
IC, Thora's not incredibly keen on singing and doesn't exactly do it much, but she's more excited by the frogs and taking care of them, even if they are a little... slimy. Although she isn't used to the little amphibians, she has no problem with caring for animals.

One of Dymphs earliest interests on site was singing and piano but I didn’t explore those much. Frog Choir seems to be the perfect way to get back into it! Her Veela abilities don’t apply here (unless I were to OOC activate them which I’m not doing lol).

Voice Type (Alto/Soprano/etc): Soprano
Why are you interested in Frog Choir?
At home, I usually sang when my parents were out. Every moment that I could be alone, I would sing softly or louder depending on how I felt. I want to do something with it and... a choir would be the perfect opportunity.

Requirements to join the club —
* Be able to attend practices/concerts
* Be registered in the index
* Be enthusiastic about singing and/or taking care of frogs!

Why are you interested in Frog Choir?
Even though Persephone is not particularly keen on singing, she figures it's time to do something with her time as Hogwarts, make it a little more interesting! Picking up a new hobby doesn't seem like a bad idea, especially if it can take her mind of things. Besides, she appreciates music and is pretty sure she would eventually enjoy making it!

Why are you interested in Frog Choir?: Saskia would like the opportunity to meet more people and take part in a fun activity. Plus she likes frogs, and that's always a bonus for her. She's not very confident in her singing ability, but she may be convinced to show off her singing to others.
