The Montreal Impact is currently looking for talented local singers to perform the national anthems prior to its games at Stade Saputo.
If you are interested, you need to:
- Be a talented bilingual singer;
- Be able to perform both Canadian (bilingual version) and American anthems a cappella;
- Be available on game days, from March to October;
- Send a video or audio demo of you performing both anthems;
- Send your CV including your experience and past performances at hymnes@impactmontreal.com.
If selected, you will be invited for an audition at the stadium.
And just in case, here are the lyrics:
Canadian national anthem
Ô Canada! Terre de nos aïeux,
Ton front est ceint de fleurons glorieux!
Car ton bras sait porter l'épée,
Il sait porter la croix!
Ton histoire est une épopée
Des plus brillants exploits.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
American national anthem
Oh, say can you see
By the dawn’s early light
What so proudly we hailed
At the twilight’s last gleaming
Whose broad stripes and bright stars
Through the perilous fight
O’er the ramparts we watched
Were so gallantly streaming
And the rocket’s red glare,
The bombs bursting in air
Gave proof through the night
That our flag was still there
Oh, say does that Star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free
And the home of the brave
