Audition Information

Here's how to apply to join the group. This sounds very formal, but it's really not. We're fun and friendly, so don't get scared off. We just need to ensure that all our members can sing on pitch and can hold their own part when surrounded by women singing other parts. 

  1. A singer can come to a rehearsal and listen for as long as she wants. She can borrow a folder of music for the evening so she can follow along with what we are rehearsing, but she gives the folder back at the end of the rehearsal.
  2. At the point that she wants to apply for membership, usually after attending two or three rehearsals as a guest, she gets to take home the music to two songs, "I Don't Know Why I Love You Like I Do" and "Star Spangled Banner" to learn them for her audition. She also gets a CD of these two songs to help her learn them. There is a $10 fee at this time. Recordings are also available here.
  3. After about three weeks, the applicant asks Lindi for an audition, and Lindi arranges for the Section Leader quartet to sing with her, singing these two songs from memory. (We usually do this at the end of a rehearsal.)
  4. If she passes the audition, she receives a folder which contains the chorus repertoire and DVDs of two recent performances. If she doesn't pass, or if she decides not to try to audition, she returns the audition sheet music and CD, her $10 audition fee is returned to her, and we wish her well.
