Auditions in 2025-2026
Auditions for our musical season typically take place in late August and early January. Our spring 2026 auditions will be on a January date announced later this year.
We invite you to indicate your interest in an audition (ages 18+) via the link below, and our Membership Chair will contact you.
Audition Specifics
Auditions will be with our Artistic Director Dr. Nathan Leaf. Each audition will be about 10 minutes long. You do not need to provide an accompanist or memorize any music.
What to Prepare for your Audition
Symphonic Choir candidates
The Symphonic Choir is our primary large ensemble that performs in most concerts; about 115 people (rehearsals Mondays 7:30-9:30pm). Please be prepared to sing either My Country, ‘Tis of Thee (PDF) or The First Noel (PDF) accompanied by our pianist (we will provide hard-copy printouts). The audition will also include vocalizing, sight reading of music, and other choral skill evaluation.
Chamber Choir candidates
The Chamber Choir is a select ensemble of about 35 people that performs for specific events. Advanced musicianship, strong music reading skills, and the ability to learn music independently are necessary.
This fall we are holding auditions solely for the Symphonic Choir, our primary ensemble. Those interested in also auditioning for the Chamber Choir will have an opportunity to do so in the spring of 2026, prior to the next Chamber Choir performance.
