The A Cappella Singers is searching for a director who specializes in vocal performance.

Find out if this opportunity is a good fit by reading all of the information that follows below.The A Cappella Singers is a non-profit chorus of adult treble voices based in Natick, Massachusetts. This auditioned group sings a variety of musical styles, including classical, modern, spiritual, and secular music. We perform two seasonal concerts per year; one in winter, and another in spring. The group does not rehearse or perform in the summer months. Despite the name of the chorus, a charming artifact of the group’s humble beginnings, we primarily perform and rehearse with piano accompaniment. The membership is currently growing, and recent enrollment has averaged around 15 singers a season. Our members are experienced vocalists who can read music, come from a variety of musical backgrounds, and represent a broad range of ages. The group recently celebrated our 60th year.

Rehearsals are held every Monday from 7-9pm at Fisk Memorial United Methodist Church in Natick. Two additional rehearsals are flexibly scheduled each semester: one mid-season Saturday morning rehearsal, and a dress rehearsal held the week of the concert. The Spring 2025 concert is planned for May 3.

Qualifications :The successful candidate will be enthusiastic, possess a range of musical knowledge, and have education and/or experience in directing singing groups. Piano skills are preferred, but not required. In addition to running rehearsals and conducting each concert, responsibilities also include coordinating additional musicians as pieces require, providing guidance on vocal techniques, and attending a monthly virtual board meeting. The director will enjoy broad creative license in selecting choral pieces for each season’s concert program, having access to our extensive music library and a modest budget to facilitate new musical selections.

The A Cappella Singers is an equal opportunity employer.

Starting date: Negotiable, with the first rehearsal of the spring semester to be in early- to mid- January 2025.

Salary: $4,500-$5,500 per annum
