Once a month, CAMMAC hosts a Reading for singers and instrumentalists to read through a mass, cantata, or opera (for choir and orchestra) under the direction of a professional conductor. Occasionally Readings feature pieces for a capella choir (singers only) or symphonies or other orchestral works (instrumentalists only). The Readings are structured more like an initial rehearsal than as a performance.
The event is open to everyone and no preparation is required. In order to ensure that there are sufficient parts available and so that we know which parts are covered, we ask instrumentalists please to register in advance with the Reading co-ordinator (see box below).
Solo Opportunities: Most works have solo vocal parts. If you are an experienced singer and you’d like to give it a try, please contact the soloists coordinator, peter.solomon@utoronto.ca, as soon as possible.
You are welcome to come and listen to the Reading, but it is much more fun singing or playing!
Readings this season: March 22, April 26, and May 24, 2020.
All Readings take place at Christ Church Deer Park, 1570 Yonge St. (2 blocks north of St. Clair Ave. at Heath St.).
2:00pm – 4:30pm.
CAMMAC members $6, non-members $10, students are free.
