Cantiamo Sonoma has immediate openings for basses and altos in its 2026 season. We are currently rehearsing "Requiem" by the contemporary American composer, Michael John Trotta, to be performed on Good Friday evening, April 3, 2026, and a cappella repertoire for concerts in June, October and December 2026, the latter including a commissioned work by the Norwegian composer, Ola Gjeilo.
Known widely as Sonoma County's premiere a cappella vocal ensemble, Cantiamo Sonoma has enchanted audiences in the North Bay and beyond since 2002. Comprised of 22 talented singers under the direction of acclaimed soprano Carol Menke, the group is lauded for its varied programs, which present the finest choral repertoire from the Renaissance through the 21st century. Cantiamo gives several major concerts each year, performing throughout Northern California. The ensemble is also well known for its candlelight Christmas concerts at St. Seraphim Orthodox Cathedral, Santa Rosa.
Rehearsals are 7:00-9:00pm on Tuesday evenings year-round at one of our two rehearsal venues--St. Seraphim Orthodox Cathedral or Presbyterian Church of the Roses--both in Santa Rosa. Audition requests may be submitted through the Cantiamo Sonoma website at www.cantiamosonoma.org/auditions/.
