We are committed and dedicated to inspiring people to sing.  Chor Leoni offers several ways to participate. 

Auditions: If you identify as a TTBB singer and have choral experience then you may want to consider joining Chor Leoni. Auditions happen at the start of the season in fall and in January.

Emerging Choral Artist Program (ECAP): Ambitious and driven young singers are invited to participate in a highly selective, project-based mentorship opportunity. This auditioned group for singers aged 16-30 will work directly with Artistic Director Erick Lichte, work side by side with the professional singers of The Leonids, and sing with Chor Leoni at concerts tied to the Vanman Choral Summit.

MYVoice: Offering a transformative singing experience for singers aged 12 and up, MYVoice is Chor Leoni’s free, 10-week choral program which culminates at the VanMan Choral Summit.. No previous musical experience is necessary and is open to any singer wishing to sing in a TTBB ensemble. Rehearsals are led by expert musical educators and are held outside of school hours in four Lower Mainland locations.

PRÉLUDE: PRÉLUDE is new program for current or future tenors, baritones and basses in grades 5, 6 and 7, sponsored by Chor Leoni and directed by Carrie Taylor. The program takes place over a week and a half and consists of two full rehearsals, an opportunity to watch Chor Leoni’s PopCappella III concert, and a mini performance for parents, where participants will sing alongside Chor Leoni.

VanMan Festival Singers: For TTBB singers ages 16-100, the Festival Singers offer an opportunity to learn from Artistic Director Erick Lichte and the professional singers of The Leonids. Festival Singers will sing side by side with Chor Leoni and rehearse, perform, and enjoy the camaraderie of 300+ singers as part of our annual VanMan Male Choral Summit.

Volunteer: Volunteers are the backbone of all our concert productions, and we can always use an extra smiling face. When you help you join the Chor Leoni family, make a valuable impact, and support music-making in our community.
