Regolamento & repertorio

Iscrizione & quota

  • Applicants must be 40 or younger on 5 June 2027. Current board or advisory board members, singers and staff of the choir are ineligible. Apply in one email to ccc@houstonchamberchoir.org by 4 January 2027, attaching an ID/passport PDF, a JPEG/PNG headshot (colour preferred) and a PDF with full name, CV, mailing address, email, phone, date of birth and both video links. The public requirements do not list letters.

Prove & durate

Round 1 · two videos · each 8–10 min

  • One performance and one rehearsal with a choir or vocal ensemble. The performance video may cover more than one performance and must total at most ten minutes. Choose contrasting repertoire between the two videos, for instance Classical/Romantic and contemporary. Film the conductor from the choir’s point of view. Instructions in English. Videos may be shortened but otherwise unedited. Use unlisted links and indicate recording year (2025–2027).

Round 2 · Houston · two rehearsals and a concert

  • Three finalists receive three comparable 25-minute sets of unaccompanied music covering several styles and languages. Prepare all 75 minutes. Draw one set and rehearsal order on 3 June. Each conductor rehearses that one set twice (4 and 5 June, 50 minutes per rehearsal) and conducts it in the 5 June evening concert. Judges evaluate both rehearsals and the concert.

Repertorio

  • The public rules state results by 4 February and the event page states 1 February. The score packet is issued to the finalists with selection results.
