Sing with Us!

If you love to sing and have choral experience, good sense of pitch, and read music, then consider singing with the New Haven Chorale. Members come from all walks of life, united by their passion for choral-music excellence and their devotion to community cultural service. Participation in the Chorale allows vocal musicans to give back to their community while improving their musicianship. Imagine joining them in exciting performances this 63rd anniversary season.  Major works for the upcoming season will include the Durufle Requiem, the Lord Nelson Mass by Haydn, and The Here and Now by Yale composer Christopher Theofanidis.  Imagine sweeping music swirling around you. Imagine the thrill as the conductor cues you. You sing out, your voice joining with one hundred others in spectacular harmony. Imagine singing with the New Haven Chorale!

AUDITIONS FOR THE 2012-2013 SEASON

Any singer who desires to join the Chorale must audition with the Music Director, Edward Bolkovac.

A typical audition will include a brief warmup and a short solo performance, followed by sight reading and other exercises that the Music Director may require to determine a candidate's voice quality and level of vocal technique and musical skill. Interested singers should prepare a short solo work that they feel displays their vocal abilities and bring its score with them to the audition.

The New Haven Chorale will hold auditions for the 2012-2013 season on the following date.  To schedule an audition, please contact the Chorale business office at the phone number or email address listed below.


September 8, 2012 from 11a.m to 2 p.m at the Educational Center for the Arts, 55 Audubon Street, New Haven

 

Individual appointments can be scheduled at other times during the season, at the convenience of the director and depending on the Chorale's rehearsal workload. Interested singers are encouraged to call the Chorale office for appointments.
