Auditions
Los Cancioneros will be holding open auditions Tuesday August 31 at at Peninsula Community Church, Rancho Palos Verdes. Los Cancioneros is one of California’s longest consecutively performing chorale groups, and the only one currently in existence in the South Bay. Now in its 61st consecutive season, Los Cancioneros Master Chorale has been featured at New York City’s Carnegie Hall in 2005, 2007 and May 2010 and has toured Europe, including Berlin, Budapest, Prague and Vienna in 1997, and completed a successful concert tour of Victoria and Vancouver, British Columbia in 2001.
Members range in ages from 20 to 60+. Some are accomplished church choral singers and students of music; the rest are passionate music lovers who enjoy singing. This is an opportunity for singers to improve and grow from the experience while having a fun time. All voices, sopranos, alto, tenor, and bass (especially sopranos) are invited to audition. A prerequisite for acceptance into the Chorale is the ability to read music. Members sing in an eclectic range of four-part music from classical to jazz, spirituals, gospel, popular standards and show tunes, in occasional smaller ensembles and with solo opportunities. For additional information see Join Los Cancioneros.
