We are looking for a new Female Vocalist!

International touring ensemble seeks female vocalist
 
  Vagabond Opera (www.vagabondopera.com) is seeking a female vocalist. Our ideal candidate has operatic training with excellent stage presence and the ability to play another lead instrument. We are particularly looking for clarinet, violin, saxophones, or trumpet. No piano, guitar, or accordion, please.  You should be able to solo and improvise on your instrument and if not then you should have a very high music reading ability.Theatrical and improv training a plus too. Please have a professional and mature atiitude. Be willing to dress up in cabaret/vintage/steampunk costumes. Have other skills?  Bellydance, tapdance? Great!  About us: we tour internationally and get paid for it (we have a national and an international booking agent). We are primarily a musical ensemble, with our hearts in the cabaret tradition and in Eastern European (Klezmer and Balkan) arabic and jazz music. Our male lead is an operatic tenor and we would like a soprano (or mezzo) who is flexible enough to sing other genres (jazz and cabaret and even Balkan). We also engage in lively stage antics and even though our songs are often arranged our presentation, musical and otherwise is improv-based. You would be the only female among five men, however we are the sensitive, open and communicative types of men. Your job would entail singing solo and duets and playing our arrangements, and following the lead of the ensemble’s artistic director. As we are based in Portland Oregon we prefer relocation to Portland. Interested parties can send inquiries, website and video info to our artistic director at vagabondsearch@yahoo.com. At this time we are ONLY speaking with candidates who can present media.
We prefer electronic media (better for the planet, etc.), but will take hard copy items as well by snail mail, but you must first email us at the email address below:
