Alto and Baritone section leaders needed

Paid positions for alto and baritone

St Dominic’s Catholic Church in San Francisco is looking for talented alto and baritone section leaders to join its Schola Cantorum. This is a well-known liturgical choir in the Bay Area that sings year round. The choir consists of 36 members, 10 of whom are professional musicians with an organ scholar. We have been blessed in recent years to have Heidi Waterman and Jace Wittig as part of our team and they are each moving to new opportunities.

The repertoire is 65% renaissance and recently included The Strathclyde Motets of James MacMillan and commissioned works David Conte, Robert Chastain and William Hawley. Concerts, recordings and occasional tours are important to the group. Upcoming performances include Mozart’s Requiem and Messiah (part 1).
Excellent sight reading and vocal control are essential. Commitments include Sundays 10:30 am – 12:45 pm, Thursday 7 – 9:30 pm and Holy Days through the year. Pay is per call, currently $62.50.

The baritone position could develop into a parish cantor position in 2017.
