About the position Helsinki Philharmonic is searching for a principal double bass and are inviting highly qualified candidates to express their interest.
Process We would like to invite qualified candidates to express their interest by sending this application. This vacancy does not yet have a specified audition date or a set application deadline as we will review applications on an ongoing basis. However HPO will decide autumn 2023 principal/coprincipal recruitments based on applications send before 1.6 2023. The choice to present yourself artistically in addition to the resumé is optional, but candidates are encouraged to provide recent video material they feel are representative of them as musicians in a professional orchestra, chamber or recital setting. Provided orchestral excerpts and concerto are mandatory.
Reviewing We are tentatively planning an audition in spring 2024. However, our goal in this process is to get to know our candidates well, preferably by guest appearing informally in the orchestra, before deciding who to invite to audition. Our jury will review every application individually. Whether individual merits will suffice for an invitation can therefore not be evaluated before an actual application is made.
An application may result in: Invitation to guest in HPO as Pricipal (or coprincipal) autumn 2023 Request for more material An invitation to preaudition |
