Section Lead (Lay Clerk) Positions: The King’s Chorus
The King’s Chorus is the choral society of the University of King’s College, Halifax. We learn and rehearse major choral works from various traditions, and share what we’ve learned with the Halifax community in a concert each semester. The Chorus brings together students, staff and faculty from Dalhousie and King’s, as well as other community members, to share in the joy of music making each semester.
The King’s Chorus is committed to fostering a supportive environment where singers of all levels can improve their musicality and enjoy themselves in the process. We sing challenging and beautiful music, and we make sure to have fun while we do, cultivating an inclusive and non-competitive atmosphere in which to participate.
Section Lead positions are awarded to professional singers in an annual application and audition process: one each of Soprano, Alto, Tenor, and Bass. We meet on Wednesday evenings from 7-9pm during the academic year from September to April. Termly concerts are usually held on a weekend evening in November and March – the dates are confirmed prior to the start of each term.
To apply as a Section Lead for the 2024/25 season, please send a musical resumé, specifying your choral voice part and previous choral experience, to:

A review of applications and scheduling of auditions will begin on Monday June 24, 2024. Applications will remain open until all positions are filled.
