the missed session. If a singer is absent more than twice in a half-year
period, the artistic director may make a determination on a case-by-case
basis as to whether the singer may continue with the ensemble and, if so,
under what circumstances.

is a black tuxedo for men and a black dress of your own choosing, within
certain guidelines, for women.
