Auditions
We actively recruit singers throughout the year. Auditions are held by appointment.
Qualifications
To sing with the Metropolitan Master Chorale you should be a moderate to strong reader and be able to master lyrics quickly in a variety of languages. Singers come to rehearsals prepared and ready to make music.
Our singers have a wide range of backgrounds and experience, but share a love of music, have high musical standards, and enjoy the choral community. The MMC is also a joyful place to sing! We want you to be part of our community.
The Chorale rehearses every Wednesday from 7:00 to 10:00 PM in Hollywood from September through early June. We perform three major concerts each season.
