The Master Chorus Eastside (MCE) is celebrating its 20th anniversary and holding auditions in all sections.

Interested singers must have choral experience and basic music reading ability. For an audition appointment, call (425) 392-8446. For more information, visit www.masterchoruseastside.org.

For the 2010-11 season, MCE will produce holiday concerts in Sammamish and Kirkland in December, perform a staged version of Bach’s St. John Passion in March, a whimsical choral overview of the passage of time in May and will conclude in June with two performances of its popular All-American Independence Celebration in Issaquah’s historic Pickering Barn.

MCE performs mainly on the Eastside, but has appeared in Benaroya Hall, throughout western Washington, and in numerous performances on the Argosy Christmas ship. All concerts feature informative commentary and historical information presented by artistic director and conductor Dr. Linda Gingrich.
