Scholarship Auditions

To book an audition for a choral scholarship, simply visit our audition booking platform. Select the correct audition category ‘choral’ and follow the steps to select a suitable day and time. Candidates for choral scholarships should prepare two pieces which represent their current capabilities, preferably without reliance on sheet music, and will also be given sightreading and ear tests. An accompanist will be provided: please bring sheet music for them to play from.

Joining without a scholarship

To arrange an audition without a scholarship please email director Gillian Craig: [email protected] and provide details of your voice type (SATB) and previous choral experience. 

Prospective members should have good sight-reading skills and experience of choral singing.

Assistant Conductor Scholarship

In addition to the above, we will appoint a suitable member of the choir as Assistant Conductor. The appointee will be given podium experience each week, the possibility of directing part of a performance, and weekly mentoring. For further details and to apply, please email director Gillian Craig [email protected]

• attend rehearsals on Tuesdays during session 5.30-7pm 
• attend scheduled concerts and Evensong performances in St Salvator’s Chapel and in venues around Scotland; also includes occasional tours in UK and Europe
• take an active part in the running of the choir

All choir members are expected to become members of the Music Centre.
