Do you enjoy singing?

Do you love traditional Caymanian Folk Music and music of the region?

Would you enjoy performing with a great company of people as we share our musical heritage?

Can you commit 90 minutes each week to be a part of a quality choral ensemble with a distinctly Caribbean flair?

Can you commit to strict training, rehearsal and performance schedules?

If so, we invite you to audition for the Cayman Islands Folk Singers, the choral branch of the Cayman National Cultural Foundation. Singers ages 16 and up are welcome to sign-up for an audition slot.

Come prepared with a short song, of any genre, to be sung a cappella. If you play an instrument, please indicate this when signing up.

“It is necessary to preserve our folkways so that they can become part of our daily lives. We must remove these songs from behind the proverbial ‘breadfruit

tree’ where they are imprisoned from the imaginations of our people. It is our duty to move them centre-stage for all to know and enjoy.”

Henry Muttoo, Artistic Director
