CND Auditions

On August 29, the Undersecretariat of Culture of the Ministry of Culture published the resolution calling for the selective process for temporary coverage, linked to the duration of the artistic season, of 26 positions for dancers (9 soloists and 17 for corps de ballet). The aim is to meet the needs established in the Master Plan of the National Dance Company, according to which it is necessary to have a multimodal and interdisciplinary cast that is capable of executing the different dance styles present in the CND repertoire.

After the deadline for submitting applications, on Wednesday, September 18, the provisional list of admitted applicants was published. Once the period for correcting errors had concluded, on Friday, September 27, the final list of admitted applicants was published.

The two elimination tests that make up the audition (1st classical ballet class and 2nd repertoire performance) will take place between October 4 and 6.

For the soloist category 95 candidates have been called (51 female soloists and 44 male soloists) and 391 for the corps de ballet category (119 male dancers and 272 female dancers).

The tribunal, chaired by the current director of the National Dance Company, Muriel Romero, is made up of 5 members: Ana Catalina Román, Violeta Gastón Faci, Catalina Arteaga, Raúl Tino Peña and Luis Martín Oya. Arturo Barral, manager of the CND, will act as secretary of the court.
