Audition for Women’s Antique Vocal Ensemble WAVE

Women’s Antique Vocal Ensemble (WAVE) is an chorus of women who are dedicated to the music of the Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque periods. From its inception, WAVE’s mission has been to communicate the heart and soul of this incredibly rich musical heritage with authenticity and excellence. WAVE presents concerts in the greater San Francisco Bay area as well as public service concerts and outreach programs for those in need such as hospitals, senior citizens, AIDS research, the inmates at Santa Rita Jail, and concerts to benefit the restoration of California missions.
Outgoing director Cindy Beitmen founded and built up the group from 1999 through 2017. Upon her retirement, co-directors Shira Kammen and Phoebe Rosquist were selected to carry on the group’s leadership. WAVE has wonderful collegiality, a great work ethic, and a lovely sound that we are hoping to augment with a few incoming voices. Rehearsals focus on liberating the singers’ vocal production, and on refinement of understanding and expression of the music and texts.
Experience in ensemble singing and music literacy are appreciated. An audition is required to see if you would be a good match for the group and vice versa.
