| Once a month, CAMMAC hosts a Reading for singers and instrumentalists to read through a mass, cantata, or opera (for choir and orchestra) under the direction of a professional conductor. Occasionally Readings feature pieces for a capella choir (singers only) or symphonies or other orchestral works (instrumentalists only). The Readings are structured more like an initial rehearsal than as a performance.
The event is open to everyone and no preparation is required. This will also allow us to ensure that there are sufficient parts available and to know which parts are covered. In accordance with public health guidelines participants are required to show proof of vaccination upon registration and wear masks when not singing or playing. Registration for the reading is first come, first served. instrumentalists and singers must register in advance with the Reading co-ordinator (see reading flyer). As of November 1, the capacity of Elliot Hall in Christ Church Deer Park is 25 people. Solo Opportunities: Most works have solo vocal parts. If you are an experienced singer and you’d like to give it a try, please contact the soloists coordinator, peter.solomon@utoronto.ca, as soon as possible. |
You are welcome to come and listen to the Reading, but it is much more fun singing or playing!
