The Opera Queensland Chorus operates on a seasonal basis with rehearsals and productions falling between February and October each year. Rehearsals for each production are generally held outside business hours.

Chorus auditions will be held at Studio 2,
Queensland Performing Arts Centre, South Bank.

Audition dates:
Wednesday, 20 October, 2010
Saturday, 23 October, 2010

IMPORTANT: Audition forms will not be accepted before 12 July, 2010 or after 10 October, 2010.

Auditionees must prepare:

• Two arias or songs, one in Italian and one in any other language.
• A single page resume
• A recent passport-sized photograph

An Opera Queensland accompanist will be in attendance at every audition. Auditionees who elect to use our accompanist are required to provide copies of their music, clearly marked up and in the key in which they will be singing. Music in plastic display books and unbound sheets are not acceptable. Auditionees wishing to rehearse with the official accompanist may do so by private arrangement as there will be no run-through on audition day. Accompanist details will be available two weeks prior to the audition date. Auditionees may bring their own accompanist to be advised in advance where possible.

Please note that you may be asked to undertake a vocal range assessment at your audition.

To be eligible to audition, you must complete a Chorus Auditions Form and email (preferred) to Opera Queensland at auditions@operaqueensland.com.au or forward to Auditions Co-ordinator, Opera Queensland, PO Box 3677, South Brisbane QLD 4101.

IMPORTANT: Non-Australian residents are not eligible for Opera Queensland Chorus positions.
