Taconic Opera (NY) Welcomes Chorus Members for Tosca

Calling all Singers! This is an open invitation for all voice parts to join Taconic Opera’s chorus for our October 15, 16 & 17 performances of Puccini's Tosca! This will be a FULLY STAGED PRODUCTION with full orchestra and sets/costumes, in Italian with English supertitles above the stage. All lead singers and orchestra members are experienced professionals. Performances will be at the Yorktown Stage in Yorktown, NY, on October 15-16 at 8:00 pm, and an October 17 matinee at 2:00 pm.

There is NO MEMBERSHIP FEE to join the company, but all singers will be required to supply their own scores and help put together their costumes. If you don’t have a score, a copy of the choral sections of the opera will be provided.

Tosca is a less demanding opera on the chorus, so it is an excellent starter opera for you if you have never done this type of performance before. Don't be frightened - this is much easier to do than you might imagine, and it is an incredibly exciting, satisfying and FUN performance experience!!! Music rehearsals will begin on Wed, August 4, 7:00-9:00 pm, and continue with rehearsals every Saturday 3:00-5:00 and Wednesdays 7:00-9:00. Once staging rehearsals begin around Sept 11, the schedule will fluctuate a little according to the availability of our lead singers, however, we try to keep the Wed/Sat calendar for the chorus as much as possible.

Rehearsal location:
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints
801 Kitchawan Road (Route 134)
Ossining, NY 10562

If you’ve always wanted the opportunity to perform in an opera, here it is! We sincerely hope you will decide to join us. Our chorus members are a fun and friendly group who truly love this amazing art form. COME JOIN US TODAY!!!!!
