Call for singers + auditions
CALGARY
BLEND VOCAL ASSOCIATION
Blend Vocal Association is seeking female singers to join for our 2022 fall season, starting in September. We are an 8-14 voice choir, performing 4 part arrangements of many genres from folk to jazz to rock to contemporary. We love Pentatonix and usually have an arrangement or two of theirs in our repertoire. We’re auditioning for all voices from 2nd alto to 1st soprano. The ability to read music is a big asset and we memorize our repertoire for performance. Solo opportunities are numerous if you’ve got the right stuff! Our Christmas concert will be mostly secular seasonal music with the occasional sacred number.
We rehearse at the Calgary Girls School in Lakeview on Thursday nights, 7:00-9:00pm. Choir fees are $250 per term. Since we are self-funding, there is also a requirement to participate in fundraising – from silent auctions, to bake sales, to grocery card sales – we’ve done it all! You can preview all the great swag at our current online silent auction that opens on April 16th at https://www.32auctions.com/BlendSpring2022
To arrange an audition, please email blendvocal@gmail.com and fill out the form under the “Audition” tab on our website at www.blendvocal.com. Auditions will be held at a mutually agreeable time and will require you to prepare a solo song of your choice, either a cappella or with your own backup recording. Come sing with a bunch of wonderful musicians and all ‘round great people!
