We are looking for motivated amateur singers for the grand opening of the 24/25 season. Do you enjoy singing, have a good ear and would like to temporarily move your performance venue from the shower to the stage of the Opernhaus? Then apply for our opening chorus 24/25. 400 people will be drawn from all those interested – you will be informed before the summer break whether you are one of the chosen ones.
