The Scholars Baroque Aotearoa, Tauranga’s Premiere chamber choir, are auditioning singers for their 2021 Season.
The Scholars Baroque Aotearoa are a chamber choir dedicated to informed performances of period music (often baroque) with an emphasis on stylistic excellence and superior choral sound.
The Scholars have availability for TENORS and BASSES to join them for 2021. The choir seeks singers with previous choral experience. Although not a requirement, the ability to read music at sight is an asset.
The choir also offers several scholarships of $1,000 on an annual basis which are available to high school, polytechnic or university students. Scholarship recipients are expected to be pursuing some form of study in music (e.g. private tuition, secondary/tertiary study; voice or other instrument/s). This is a golden opportunity for good musicians who have fine voices, the commitment to be part of a close-knit team, and a desire to develop first class sight-reading skills.
The Scholars’ 2021 season will include music by Bach, Handel, and Mozart, with performances in Tauranga and around the wider region, as well as two community Christmas events featuring a range of music from traditional to contemporary.
