The Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra is calling all interested choral singers to audition for the 2016-2017 season of the SSO Chorus.
This season includes performances of Bach’s Cantata 140 “Wachet Auf”, Handel’s “Let Thy Hand Be Strengthened”, Mozart’s “Coronation Mass”, and of course Handel’s Messiah.
The chorus is conducted and rehearsed by SSO Chorus Master Duff Warkentin. The SSO Chorus has limited rehearsal times in the weeks leading up to performances with the intention being that all choristers come with the score fully learned prior to rehearsals so that the attention and focus can be on the artistic details of the work.
In its first two seasons, the SSO Chorus was a resounding success bringing to life “the best Messiah Saskatoon has ever heard!”. We are thrilled to expand the programming for a third season and present the first professional performances of Bach’s Wachet Auf and Mozart’s Coronation Mass in Saskatoon.

Auditions take place Tuesday, Sept 20th and Thursday, September 22nd at the Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra Offices 408 20th Street W.
