Church Singers Needed
Location: Honolulu, HI
Type: Singers
VOCAL AUDITIONS for church soloists will be held on Friday, July 30, 2021 from 3-5 PM, at The First Church of Christ Scientist, 1508 Punahou Street, Honolulu, HI 96822, where church services are held every Sunday and Thanksgiving Day, 10:00 – 11:00 a.m. Soloists are paid $110 per service, and will be responsible for presenting three hymns and a solo, as assigned. Soloists will be called on to sing as needed, and may/may not sing every week. Soloists are independent contractors, and are not employees of the church. An organ/piano accompanist will be provided. Bring an extra copy of your audition music for the accompanist. Music should be performance ready, but need not be memorized. In addition to presenting your solo piece, you will also be asked to sight-read a song from the Christian Science Hymnal. While vocal quality and expression are valued, diction is of utmost importance, so as to facilitate understanding of the message in the song.
Soloist Duties:
Retrieve your assigned solo piece from the church music room. (Solos are usually available four weeks in advance.)
Treat borrowed sheet music with care. If you must write on the sheet music, use a pencil.
Arrange a time to rehearse with the organist sometime during the week before you are scheduled to sing.
Respect the organist’s time by learning your music before you rehearse together.
Arrive by 9 a.m. on the day you are scheduled to sing to do a final run-through of your solo and hymns with the organist, including mic check.
Finish run-through no later than 9:30 a.m.
Maintain a quiet solemnity in the sanctuary during the 30 minutes preceding each service.
Wear proper church attire.
Present musical selections when cued during the service.
Turn off the microphone, and return it to its proper location.
Return borrowed sheet music to respective folders.
Before leaving, ensure windows and closets are closed in the music room, and lights and fans are off.
