With its new season beginning on Sept. 4, the Menlo Park Chorus is looking for singers to join the group. There are no auditions, and members are not required to read music.

The chorus meets from 7:15 to 9:45 p.m. on Tuesdays in the new Arrillaga Family Center in the Menlo Park Civic Center at 701 Laurel St.

Members are primarily from Menlo Park, but singers from Woodside, Portola Valley, Mountain View, and other nearby towns also add their voices to the ensemble.

Those interested may contact Sally Cooper at sacooper@menlomoneymatters.com or 650-615-1591. Or, just show up at the first rehearsal on Tuesday, Sept. 4.

"You are welcome to give the chorus a try without any commitment," Ms. Cooper says in an announcement. "Remember, there is medical research (proving) the physical benefits of singing."
