Palm Springs Gay Men’s Chorus to hold auditions Sept. 7 – Desert Sun
The nonprofit Palm Springs Gay Men’s Chorus (PSGMC) will hold its “Sing Out Proud” open call auditions Sept. 7 at 6 p.m. at the Mizell Center in Palm Springs. This special evening of camaraderie will also be an opportunity to volunteer and get involved with one of the chorus’ many committees.
Interested singers can also attend the open rehearsal that night, starting at 7 p.m., to experience what it is like to perform with the chorus and meet its members. PSGMC continues to build “A Chorus Like No Other,” with a commitment to a high standard of excellence in their performances. During the audition process, PSGMC will be recruiting singers for the main chorus as well as for their small ensemble groups Bruce Kenyon’s The Arrangement and Gentlemen’s Agreement.
The chorus is an auditioned, volunteer choral ensemble consisting of male singers age eighteen and older who are gay or gay friendly, transgender male identifying and straight-allied men of all ethnicities. With a wide range of varying musical training and backgrounds, the chorus is committed to fostering an environment of professionalism, respect and unity.
The mission of the PSGMC is to be a chorus of gay men who, through musical excellence, community outreach and civic responsibility, are dedicated to entertaining, inspiring and educating the culturally diverse community in which we live.
