Auditions 2026

The International Choir Academy under the artistic director and founder Rolf Beck is a vocal ensemble varying in size and constellation that presents innovative and unusual concert programs. 

The ensemble with its academic work ethos is constantly evolving and is keen to discover, support and advise young talented singers from all nations. 

We organize regular auditions throughout the world to discover and develop international next-generation singers. 

We have an annual intensive work phase – The Academy – with concerts after each project. Despite “The Academy”, we also go on regular concert tours within Germany, Europe and around the world. 

We’re doing our yearly auditions in April and May of this year. Please check the list down below for further information on which cities they will be taking place in and when.
