CHORUS

Sing with us

The Palm Beach Opera Chorus is one of the region’s leading musical ensembles, comprised of locally-based singers with professional training in classical vocal technique. Led by Associate Conductor Greg Ritchey, the Palm Beach Opera Chorus is consistently recognized for its artistic excellence. In recent seasons, South Florida Classical Review has praised the ensemble’s “razor-sharp intonation and glowing, well-blended tones,” and hailed their performances as “superb” and “refined.”

Auditions for the Palm Beach Opera Chorus are held annually every Spring. Our paid chorus positions are intended for professional adult singers with training and experience with operatic literature and currently residing in South Florida. For future audition information, please contact Artistic Administration Manager Kathleen Shelton at 561-835-7553 or kshelton@pbopera.org
