Auditions for the Concord Chorus: All Voice Parts

Founded in 1946, the 110-voice Concord Chorus performs several concerts of choral-orchestral and smaller works each season.  Auditions for all voice parts will be held during the next open rehearsal on Monday, September 14, 2015, from 7:30 to 10pm at Newbury Court's Duvall Chapel (80 Deaconess Rd) in Concord, Massachusetts.  The audition consists of scales, ear and pitch memory exercises, and sight-reading in order to evaluate voice, ear, and reading abilities.  A prepared piece is not required, but prior musical experience is expected.

The repertory of the Concord Chorus encompasses music from the 16th century to the present.  This season's concerts include Mozart's Requiem with professional soloists and orchestra; a new choral-orchestral work by Michael Schachter commissioned for the Chorus's 70th anniversary; and music of Palestrina, Pachelbel, Bach, Mendelssohn, and Randal Thompson.

Rehearsals are held on Monday evenings from 7:30 to 10pm.  The Winter Holiday concerts will be Saturday, December 12, 2015; and the Mozart concert will be Saturday, May 21, 2016.

The Concord Chorus is a wonderful group of welcoming people who enjoy singing and learning excellent choral repertoire and performing at the highest level.  Under the leadership of its Music Director, Kevin Leong, the Concord Chorus invites you to share in a musical experience that will be fun and fulfilling.  For more information, please visit www.concordchorus.org.
