The New Jersey Association of Verismo Opera, the house opera company of the Bergen Performing Arts Center (bergenPAC), opens the 2016-2017 season and invites singers to audition for the Verismo Opera Chorus.
Artistic Director Lucine Amara announces professional, amateur, and retired male and female singers may auditionfor the Verismo Opera Chorus. Vocalists are invited to learn more about the grand opera company's 28th season and attend the Open House at 2:00 p.m.
Amara, who began her luminous operatic career with the San Francisco Opera Chorus and performed for over four decades with The Metropolitan Opera in 56 roles, encourages singers to audition for the Verismo Opera Chorus. "Anyone wanting to do something special and rewarding should join the Verismo Opera Chorus. Besides making new friends and wearing stunning period costumes, a vocalist gets a chance to sing outstanding music. Performing with the chorus provides a vocalist the opportunity to gain experience and develop a career by singing in other languages, appearing on a professional stage, and assuming the appearance of someone else," she said.
During the company’s 2016-2017 season, choristers will perform in the company’s production of Giuseppe Verdi's classic, timeless work, Rigoletto, on October 23, 2016 and the epic Aida on April 23, 2017. Both operas will be presented at 3 p.m. at bergenPAC, located at 30 North Van Brunt Street, in Englewood, New Jersey.
Vocalists will sing in Italian and perform live at bergenPAC. Preparation includes instruction in the pronunciation of the text in Italian, vocal warm-ups, learning the music and detailed staging. The operas will be fully staged and performed in costume accompanied by an orchestra led by the company's new Principal Conductor/Music Director, Maestra Lucy Arner.
AUDITION PROCESS:
Male singers, representing all vocal ranges and ages, are especially needed. Adult applicants should have a rudimentary working ability to read music and experience singing. Teenagers, ages 17 to 19, may also audition for the Verismo Opera Chorus and must read music and have some prior vocal experience singing with a school, choir, or another performing group or organization. Previous stage experience and foreign language study are desirable. Applicants who have these skills and experiences will be given preference.
The audition consists of singing five note scales. During the audition process, Principal Conductor Lucy Arner will determine each singer's range and vocal category. Applicants do not need to bring a song or music to the audition.
