Audition Information

Choral/vocal/music experience and music reading skills are of prime consideration prior to scheduling an audition.

Auditions are on-going and can be scheduled at any time at the convenience of the singer, usually prior to a rehearsal.

Rehearsals are held on Tuesday evenings from 7–9 PM, with rare substitutes and/or 7–10 PM (at the latest); additions, as needed, e.g., only for specified concerts.

  • An audition consists of a) Vocalization, b) 2 prepared solos* — one aria, art song, or sacred work and one of another style, e.g., pops, folk, Broadway. c) Sight reading                 

  • *Memory not required. Bring extra scores (2-sided and hole-punched) for music director & pianist.

Singer Participation Requirements

For this gift, singers are offered any combination of free series tickets up to the value of the donation.
