The choir of Theater Basel, under the direction of our choral director Michael Clark, is made up of the professional opera choir, the Opera Choir Academy (OCA) and the Extra Choir. The Extra Choir is a choir of well-trained adult amateur singers. It participates in large opera productions or concerts in which a particularly large number of choristers are needed. In regular rehearsals, new pieces are rehearsed and the common choral sound is cultivated. For this reason, membership in the Extra Choir requires not only vocal and acting skills but also a high degree of time availability. As a rule, rehearsals take place one to three times a week in the evenings. There are additional rehearsals directly before premieres and concerts. Admission to the Extra Choir is decided after an audition. Interested persons should contact Pam Herzog: p.herzog@artcom.ch
