Auditions

 

Sydney Chamber Choir is an auditioned ensemble of around 24-30 voices that performs a wide range of music including Renaissance, Baroque, 20th century and contemporary music. Rehearsals generally take place on Tuesdays from 6.30-9.30pm close to the Sydney CBD. There are also occasional rehearsals at other times, including weekends.

Limited places are available for singers with high-level, well-rounded musicianship skills, a quality of voice capable of blending, and good sight-singing. We do suggest that, if possible, you attend a Sydney Chamber Choir concert before auditioning.

Auditions are conducted by the Artistic Director and 4 members of the choir. They are usually held in October/November each year to fill any vacancies for the following year's concerts. The audition will most likely include:

  • Scales and technical exercises

  • A prepared piece of your own choosing

  • Aural tests

  • Sight singing

  • Ensemble singing – we will send you out the music for this in advance
