AUDITIONS!
Saturday 29 July 2023, 9.30am to 6pm – The Piano, 156 Armagh Street, Christchurch.
We are seeking professional and emerging opera singers for all principal and comprimario roles in our upcoming opera seasons in Ōtautahi Christchurch, and strong soloists for a variety of concert opportunities in Waitaha Canterbury.
Our programming aims to highlight and celebrate the region’s rich operatic vocal talent. Casts are diverse, encompassing all ages (18+) and voice-types, including character roles. No roles are pre-cast, meaning everything is up for grabs – but only to those who audition!
If you’re a trained classical singer with acting experience and the ability to quickly learn and memorise music, and you’re available for our performance and rehearsal periods, we warmly welcome your audition. Video auditions are also available.
Our 2023 audition panel is Margot Button (Toi Toi Opera Artistic Director), Sara Brodie (Director), Michael Vinten (Conductor), Claire Caldwell (NZ Opera), and Graham Sattler (CSO).
