Tri-Cities Opera is fortunate to have a select volunteer chorus. These dedicated and talented people are chosen by audition at the beginning of each season. Joining the Tri-Cities Opera Chorus insures a unique and rewarding experience. It is an ideal opportunity to better individual vocal technique, musicianship and knowledge of foreign languages, while receiving first-hand stage experience from some of the industry’s most sought-after professionals. Tri-Cities Opera Chorus members also enjoy complimentary tickets to productions they participate in and a volunteer appreciation dinner at the end of the season.
