Solstice is currently looking for a low alto to join our six-woman vocal group.

Solstice was founded in 1996 and is based in San Francisco. We perform music across many different genres, with an emphasis on world, classical, pop, and jazz.

We specialize in music written by women or for women's voices, and regularly compose, commission, and arrange new songs.

Solstice has performed in many Bay Area venues including Freight and Salvage, Noe Valley Ministry, La Pea, and Villa Montalvo. Solstice has also performed on KALW's Folk Music and Beyond On-Air Folk Festival. Solstice was a featured performer at the West Coast A Cappella Summit along with nationally known groups such as the Bobs and M-pact.

Solstice has recorded 2 CDs, featuring music from many different countries in at least eleven languages.

We're looking for someone with experience singing with a vocal group, who can read music and has a good musical ear. We'd like a singer who feels comfortable performing in different languages and musical styles (including pop, classical, and world music). We need an alto who can sing low D with a full sound. We rehearse once a week (sometimes more when we're preparing for a concert). If you're interested, please send a tape or CD to:
