Audition With Us

The Central City Chorus has openings for basses and tenors who are strong singers and enthusiastic performers. We enjoy lively rehearsals on Thursday evenings from September through May, and we present three concerts per season. In recent years the Chorus has performed Bach's Magnificat, the Brahms German Requiem, Mozart's C Minor Mass, Mendelssohn's Elijah, and the rarely-performed Requiem by Frederick Delius with orchestra, as well as numerous a cappella works spanning five centuries of music. The 50+-member Chorus is led by Phillip Cheah, with Assistant Conductor Brian Hamer.

Our next new member auditions will be held on Tuesday, January 3, 2012, from 6:30 p.m., by appointment. To schedule an audition please send an email to CentralCityChorus@gmail.com. For audition requirements, please see the following links:
