Songbirds Needed!

If you think you've got what it takes, do apply for the audition! Read on.. Currently, rehearsals are held in Bangsar every Sunday night and occasional Thursday nights. I'm an alto in this musical. :)


AUDITIONS FOR MARCH-APRIL 2009


TCS (The Canticle Singers) is looking for 4 tenors and 4 baritone/basses to complete the cast for the stage musical TWO FROM GALILEE for which rehearsals will begin in May 2009 and for staging will be in October 2009. This dramatic musical which was conceived in the 1990s and has been staged around the world, eventually making it to the Peter Sharpe Theatre, Symphony Space on Broadway; in November 2006. H.K. Chong and Chin San Sooi serve as Music Director and Artistic Director of this production with a cast/chorus of 35.

Interested singers/performers are invited to apply for an audition. Performers should be competent to sing in their respective voice parts (i.e. SATB) both in standard choral formation as well as in random voice formation. If you do not know what SATB stands for please do not apply. Teamwork and bonding are important even though you may already be considered a soloist. A high rate of attendance, commitment, discipline and hard work is required irrespective of your prior performing experience (e.g. Istana Budaya, KLPAC, Lincoln Centre, Covent Garden, etc). Learning and working together is a life long process. A willingness to learn therefore is important. There is a minimum age requirement of 21, unless an exception is made. If the foregoing scares you then, you are then not the right material we are looking for.

Before writing in please visit www.thecanticlesingers.com for more information on our background and to complete the online audition application form. Please take note that all our performers are are unpaid.
