La Monnaie’s Cassandra Choir is recruiting!

To expand its ranks and welcome new voices, the Cassandra Choir is organising two evening auditions on January 20th and 27th 2025!

Since September 2022, the Cassandra Choir has been lending its voice to various causes that reflect the strong values which La Monnaie defends in its opera productions.

Male voices (tenor-baritone-bass)
Young voices (aged between 18 and 35)
Assured voices (independent learning with the help of scores and vocal files sent in advance)
Committed voices (rehearsals every Monday from 19:00 to 21:00 at La Monnaie, with performances on certain evenings and weekends).

Interested? Sign up by January 10th 2025 for one of two evening auditions: January 20th and 27th 2025, from 18:30 to 21:00 at La Monnaie (rue Léopold, 23 – Workshops building).
