Auditions for the Spring 2023 season will be held from 6:00 to 7:00pm on three Thursdays leading up to our concert (January 12 & 19, and February 9) at 7400 Woodlawn in Seattle. Our Spring season will begin after our concert on February 18th. Ancora seeks singers who can demonstrate versatility and ease of control in vocal tone and style, including use of straight tone, vibrato, bright and dark qualities.

Under new artistic director J. Scott Kovacs, our upcoming Spring 2023 season includes one concert, “Love and Longing,” on June 10th, 2023.

We rehearse weekly on Thursday nights, 7:15-9:15pm at 7400 Woodlawn in the Green Lake neighborhood of Seattle. Rehearsals begin on February 9th.

Ancora members are responsible for paying tuition ($40/month), volunteer opportunities to support the organization, and consistent attendance at rehearsals. All participants must be fully vaccinated against Covid, including a booster.

Ancora welcomes all treble-voiced singers 18 years and older who are committed to exploring music for women's voices. We embrace diversity and encourage all who identify as female, non-binary, and minority genders across the gender spectrum to schedule an audition with us.
