The Camarata Music Company is holding auditions for new members for its chamber group.

The CMC Chamber Singers is a chamber choir of 24-28 singers that rehearses weekly and performs regularly throughout the year. This year they sang at venues including the Seoul Arts Center, the Blue House and the residence of the U.S. Ambassador.

The Chamber Singers cover a wide range, from renaissance to contemporary music, and this year performed a song based on a Robert Frost poem for the first time in the world, and next year will premiere a song composed for the choir by Brett Kroening, based on a poem by Kim Seo-wol.

Rehearsals are in English but only a basic understanding of it is needed.

Auditions run till the end of December by appointment. Aspiring singers are asked to prepare one song that shows their voice at its best. There will also be some other things at the audition such as testing voice range.

To schedule an audition, or to find out more, please contact auditions@camaratamusic.com or (010) 4506-8190 (Korean), or (010) 9806-8655 (English).
