"The I Cantori chorus, consisting of amateur music lovers from our community, has consistently sung with extraordinary enthusiasm, and on this occasion outdid themselves in the many levels of dynamics (from the most beautiful pianissimo to strong fortissimo) and well articulated expression.” 
Lyn Bronson, Peninsula Reviews

AUDITIONS for I Cantori di Carmel

Picture
Auditions for the I Cantori di Carmel Fall 2022 season are now open.
>> To arrange an audition, send an email to auditions@icantori.org. 

I Cantori di Carmel offers dedicated singers the opportunity to study and perform a diverse repertoire of great choral works from many eras and genres. We perform both a cappella and with orchestral accompaniment. Our volunteer singing membership is drawn from the trained, non-professional musicians in the greater Monterey Bay area community.  We are looking for experienced choral singers with good musical skills and an enthusiasm for participating in an active and dynamic musical organization.  

What to expect at your audition:
1. Vocalizing: using mostly familiar exercises, to discover your comfortable and usable vocal range and what voice part should you sing.
2. Sight-reading: you will be asked to sight-read a selection of music.
3. Prepared song: you will be asked to sing a short song, a cappella, of your choosing.

Rehearsals will begin on August 24, 2022 at St. Timothy's Church, 52 Soledad Drive, Monterey. We rehearse weekly on Wednesday evenings from 6:15-9:30 p.m. with additional rehearsals scheduled throughout the season. Our next set of concerts will take place at Holy Cross Church in Santa Cruz on December 9, in the Carmel Mission Basilica on Saturday, December 10 and Sunday, December 11, and at the Five Wounds Church in San Jose on Saturday December 17, 2022. We will be performing the Christmas Oratorio by J. S. Bach together with orchestra and soloists.
 

Singers each pay $150.00 for the season, and also pay a small additional amount to cover the cost of purchasing and/or printing scores (varies each season).  If cost is a barrier for participation, let us know and we will strive to work something out.
 
In this time of COVID-19, to protect the safety of us all, singers are required to show proof that they are fully vaccinated along with having booster shots when eligible.
