Job Description:
Located in the vibrant cultural capital of Chicago, the DePaul
University School of Music seeks an experienced soprano, mezzo, or
contralto to join our faculty in applied classical voice at an
exciting period of strategic expansion. This is a full-time term
faculty (i.e., benefitted, non-tenure-eligible) position with a
focus on teaching. Initial contracts are for one year; multi-year
contracts are possible thereafter.
As the School is reinvesting in the voice program as part of our
Strategic Plan beginning in 2025, we seek a compelling performer
with a fluid and healthy technique, expertise in opera and art
song, demonstrated breadth of repertoire and, at a minimum,
national recognition as a vocalist.
Job duties include teaching applied voice primarily to graduate and
undergraduate students in performance, as well as to undergraduate
majors in Music Education, Performing Arts Management, Sound
Recording Technology, and Bachelor of Arts in Music programs.
Teaching may include courses in the candidate's area of expertise
depending on faculty interest and departmental needs.
Ability to recruit high-quality voice students for our BM, MM, and
post-master's Certificate programs is expected. Other duties are
generally fewer than those expected of tenure-line faculty but
include auditions, juries, and some department service.
Recognized in Chicago and nationally, the DePaul School of Music is
a forward-thinking institution that particularly values colleagues
who demonstrate strategic mindset, high collaborative capacity, and
dedication to the development of agile professionals. External
artistic and industry connections are highly valued, as evidenced
by our many faculty in the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Lyric
Opera of Chicago.
DePaul is an equal-opportunity employer that values diversity and
strongly encourages diverse candidates to apply. Candidates should
have demonstrated experience working and teaching in a diverse
learning environment.
Questions about the search should be directed to the chair of the
search committee, Dr. Chuck Chandler, Voice Area Coordinator, at
c.chandler@depaul.edu.
