Following your vocal audition is a brief interview regarding your interest in singing with Magnum Chorum.

Our exciting 35th Anniversary Season begins in November with our Cathedral Concert featuring Nico Gutierrez’s powerful work about loss, “Amo”, and James Whitbourn’s Requiem. Our Christmas Concerts feature John Rutter’s Gloria and music by MacMillan, Gabrieli, and beloved carols. In March we offer sacred choral treasures by Bruckner, Allegri, and Hildegard von Bingen. In April, we will celebrate at our 35th Anniversary Gala. For Spring we present music from Latvia and Estonia, along with works by American composers Moses Hogan, Elaine Hagenberg, and Aaron Copland, and reunite with Magnum Chorum alums in performance to close the program!

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.
