hkcs understudy program

effective May 5, 2025

HKCS at their Valentine’s Special Concert. February 23, 2025.

no audition required!

The HKCS Understudy Program is designed to gradually incorporate new singers ages 15-25 into the core performing ensemble while seeing if they’re the right match for the group.

Potential new members will:

  • Attend regular rehearsals with the group--Mondays and Thursdays from 7-9PM, followed by food and fellowship. Rehearsal venue is located in Surrey; details will be provided in a separate email.

  • Receive one-on-one vocal coaching.

  • Perform as a member of HKCS at our solo concerts--Applications submitted before June 30th, 2025 will guarantee participation in our year-end solo concert in September.

  • May get called upon to “fill in” for numerous gigs/performances if a core member happens to be absent

Re-auditions are required at the start of the new season (October 2025) to formally be a part of HKCS, however, the Understudy Program placements require no audition and are open year-round.

HKCS warmly welcomes aspiring singers who wish to learn more about Filipino culture through the beauty of music and language. We hope that this will be an enriching experience and inspire long-term participation with the HKCS community!
