Fall 2025 Auditions will include:

  • Basic vocalizing (assessing range, pitch, tone quality, etc.)
  • Aural recall - usually 3-4 examples increasing in difficulty
  • Sight-reading - singing your part on a piece we select using whichever method you're most comfortable with (solfege, neutral syllable, text, etc.)
  • You do not need a prepared piece

Auditions will take place the first three days of the semester, August 25-27. A link to sign up for an audition time will be posted in late July.
