npractise protest songs that we sing during climate actions and other even
ts.\nMusic comforts us. It is a creative outlet for frustrations. It is a
way to\ncreate something beautiful together\, driven by our desire to make
the world\nbetter and more beautiful. Under the guidance of conductor Blu
e Dog (Matthias\nKonecny)\, you learn protest songs with which we inspire
people to do better for\nMother Earth. We are part of a national network o
f choirs (klimaatkoren.nl\n[http://klimaatkoren.nl/]).\n\n\nFREQUENTLY ASK
ED QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS\n\nDo I need to be able to read sheet music to jo
in? No. Our choir has no “entry\nlevel”. Everyone who loves singing and lo
ves Mother Earth is welcome. There is\nsheet music\, but we also work with
audio files so you can learn songs by ear. We\ndo sing in multiple parts\
, so if you do not have much experience\, you are\nexpected to practise yo
ur parts and try to improve. It is like football: our\nclub does not set r
equirements\, but we do sometimes play a match\, and then it\nhelps if the
team wants to score. If I sing along\, do I have to go onto the A12?\nNo.
As an action choir\, we take part in all kinds of protests\, demonstratio
ns\nand other events. From singing during the Climate Vigil\n(klimaatwake-
amsterdam.nl [http://klimaatwake-amsterdam.nl/]) to Extinction\nRebellion
actions where it is possible that you may be arrested. It is ALWAYS\nyour
own choice what you do or do not take part in. For every action\, we clear
ly\ncommunicate beforehand whether you could face risks. That said: if you
are not\ninto activism at all\, another choir might be a better choice. I
f you are unsure\,\nyou are very welcome to come and get a feel for it and
see whether the Climate\nChoir is for you! Can I join if I do not live in
Amsterdam? Yes\, but do check\nklimaatkoren.nl [http://klimaatkoren.nl/]
to see whether there is a climate\nchoir closer to you. At the moment ther
e are already more than ten climate\nchoirs nationwide\, and more are bein
