The Oriana Consort is an accomplished chorale of 8 voices on a part, with an eclectic repertory from seven centuries, enthusiastic audiences, and a warm and attractive choral sound, as all our carefully-auditioned members have clear, well-produced, and center-of-the-pitch voices, and are good-to-excellent readers.
We seek 4 tenors and 2 low basses to fill out our ensemble. Sunday evening rehearsals begin on Jan. 8, 2012 in Cambridge for March & April performances of works by Britten, Schütz, Braun,
and Rachmaninoff (7 of the 15 movements of his “All-Night Vigil”). Samples of our sound are posted on our Media page.
We invite interested tenors and basses to schedule a half-hour audition on Thurs. Jan. 12 from 6:30 pm, Sat. Jan. 14 from 3:00 pm, Thurs. Jan. 19 from 6:30 pm, Sat. Jan. 21 from 3:00 pm, or another mutually agreeable time to be determined via email. Please email Walter Chapin at
, and include a summary of your choral singing experience. For the audition you’ll join a quartet of Oriana members to read excerpts from our repertory and to sing a difficult but brief choral part that you’ll prepare 2 days in advance. Please also bring a solo of your choice.
