Signups & Auditions
SIGNING UP FOR CHOIR WITHOUT AN AUDITION
- Students wishing to be in Titan Choir (beginning tenors and basses, listed as Men’s Chorus on the registration form) or Concert Choir (beginning altos and sopranos) DO NOT need to audition. They can simply register for the class with their academic advisor.
AUDITIONING FOR AN ADVANCED CHOIR
- For students who wish to audition for Vocal Ensemble (intermediate men/women), Advanced Treble Ensemble (advanced) and Madrigals (advanced men/women), they must go through the May audition. This year, auditions will be held between May 6-10, 2024.
- This live audition consists of:
- Vocal scales
