Chamber Choir
The NWVA Chamber Choir, a 32-voice ensemble to be made up of 16 of the region’s finest vocal professionals, eight high school choral interns and eight collegiate choral scholars.
We have a limited number of openings in our professional core and the next round of auditions for the 2025-2026 season will take place July 30-31, 2025. Please fill out the form below and schedule an audition time slot.
Singers interested in joining this select choral ensemble should be prepared to sing an art song or aria and successfully sight-read from a choral excerpt, both individually and in a quartet. Larger, operatic voices are still encouraged to audition and will be considered assuming singers can demonstrate the ability to blend when required.
Professional singers will be paid a competitive hourly rate. Rehearsals will take place on Monday nights and will be consolidated into 4, 3-hour rehearsals leading up to the concerts. Our upcoming season will consist of a Fall concert on Oct. 19th (3pm), our holiday concert Voices of Winter - on Dec. 20th (2pm) and 21st (7pm) and our spring concert Cordillera: Range of the Americas on March 15, 2026 at 3pm.
Preference will be given to singers that can commit to a full season. Our eight choral interns will be on full scholarship to sing as section leaders in the Youth Choir and will receive a quarterly stipend for their work in the Chamber Choir. Our collegiate choral scholars will also be paid for their work.
