Sidney is an ideal Choir for those who cannot commit to a daily singing routine, but are still keen to make music at the highest level and take part in annual tours and commercial recordings. The regular term-time commitments are as follows:​

Sundays: 4:30 pm rehearsal for 6:00 pm Choral Evensong
Wednesdays: 5:15 pm rehearsal for 6:30 pm Latin Choral Vespers
Thursdays: 6:00 - 7:30 pm rehearsal (for upcoming music)
Fridays: 5:15 pm rehearsal for 6:30 pm Choral Evensong​

Free formal hall is offered on Fridays and Sundays. Extra rehearsals are occasionally arranged at the beginning of the academic year, and for recordings, tours, and special College events.
