Seattle Bach Choir
Seeking Choral Conductor
The Seattle Bach Choir, a chamber choir of 30-35 voices, has been actively performing in the Seattle area since 1984. We perform a broad range of repertoire, from the Renaissance through the present day. Much of the music we perform as an a cappella choir, though we often add keyboard and small instrument groups, as suits the pieces being performed. We will be interviewing qualified candidates this summer to begin in September 2009. We perform a three concert season. This is a paid position, the amount depending upon experience of the conductor.
The position is approximately 0.2 time, though might be expanded. Please submit your C.V. or resumé at this time, with information pertinent to choral conducting. If we need further information, we will ask you for that. The call for applications closes on July 15, 2009. We will notify you regarding your status on or before July 16.
Interviews will be conducted in late July and very early in August, with conducting auditions for the candidates who rise to the top on August 4 and 11. We rehearse Tuesday evenings form 7:15-9:30 in the Maple Leaf area of Seattle (north of the University of Washington). Please contact us at webmaster@seattlebachchoir.org to submit an application.
