Audition for the 2024-2025 Concert Season
Magnum Chorum seeks singers of all voice parts who are inspired to offer music of transforming artistry and spirit. The two-step audition process is outlined below. Deadline for application: Sunday, May 12.
Step 1: Complete this online form and submit a recording of your prepared solo (a selection that demonstrates your highest musicianship) by Sunday, May 12. You may sing a cappella or with accompaniment. If you require a recorded accompaniment, please submit that request on your form by Friday, May 10. Submissions will be reviewed and selections made to participate in the next step of the audition process by Monday, May 13.
Step 2: If invited to continue in the audition process, you will be assigned a time for an in-person audition on May 7, May 14, May 17 or May 18. Your range, flexibility, sight-reading, and tonal memory will be assessed in your audition. If you are not able to audition in person, please let us know and alternative arrangements may be made. Following your vocal audition is a brief interview regarding your interest in singing with Magnum Chorum.
Our 2024-2025 season begins in November with a program featuring The Sacred Veil by Eric Whitacre along with works by Edie Hill and Nico Gutierrez. Our Christmas Concerts feature Ola Gjeilo’s beloved Dark Night of the Soul. In March, we offer sacred choral treasures by Brahms, Bruckner, Powell, and Trecek-King. For Spring, we present Vaughan Williams' Flos Campi with viola and chamber orchestra.
Magnum Chorum rehearses from September to May on Tuesday evenings at Westwood Lutheran Church in St. Louis Park, where Magnum Chorum serves as Choir in Residence.
