Third Baptist Church, located in the Grand Center district of St. Louis, has openings for sopranos and altos in its Sunday choir. Schedule for members include a weekly Wednesday evening rehearsal (7 – 8:30 pm) and Sunday morning service (10:30 rehearsal for 11 am service). Additional calls include Christmas Eve, Ash Wednesday, and Holy Wednesday. Five Sundays per year are not choral.

The repertoire is eclectic, including premieres and commissions, with a particular focus on women composers. Past lists are available on the church’s website. Resources for the choir include the second largest pipe organ in the city, and a new Steinway D grand piano. The church describes itself as “a different kind of Baptist.” For more information or to set up an audition please email Director of Music, Dr. Philip Barnes, at pbarnes (at) third-baptist.org

All Saints Episcopal Church in Park Slope Brooklyn is looking for volunteer singers comfortable singing one-on-a-part and with good sight reading skills in order to sing as part of a once-a-month Evensong Choir. The repertoire is all unaccompanied and usually 4 to 6 part late Renaissance music (think William Byrd).

The Evensong services are one Sunday a month at 5pm. There is one rehearsal for each performance, so good sight reading skills are a must. Looking for all voice parts (but especially alto and tenor).

We’re looking to create a laid back yet passionate group of volunteer singers enthusiastic about reading and singing great a capella sacred choral music and excited to participate in music-driven and meditative services.

This season’s Evensong services will be:
September 29;
October 27; and
December 1

If you are interested and available, please email me at

Thank you!
