Audition call: sing with Sirens this season

Sirens is a dynamic choral ensemble dedicated to fostering a high-level of choral artistry. Are you an experienced musician looking for a challenge? Are you passionate about choral singing? Do you have a keen interest in the choral art form? Sirens is currently auditioning soprano and alto voices for the 2023-24 season! 

Interested singers must be experienced musicians with substantial choral experience. They must possess strong score reading and sight reading skills and must be comfortable singing independently within a small ensemble setting.  We are seeking members that can commit to a demanding rehearsal and performance schedule. Not only are we auditioning for a permanent position, but we are also auditioning for our substitute roster.

Recommended Qualifications:

  • A degree or diploma focused in Music
  • A minimum of 2 years chamber choir or small choral ensemble experience with an ability to sing one-to-a-part
  • Advanced musicianship skills; the ability to navigate different styles and languages.

Acceptance into the ensemble is dependent on a successful audition and a commitment to our full season. If enlisted to our substitute roster, the prospective singer should be willing to learn music quickly. 

Audition requirements:

  • Perform one piece that showcases range and timbre. Singers should expect to sing a cappella.
  • Prepare a selection of standard choral repertoire provided by the Artistic Director.
  • Sing with members from our current ensemble.
  • Sight-read a passage provided.
  • Partake in a brief interview.
