SYMPHONIC CHORUS (Auditioned)
Prospective Adult Singers (Ages 18+)
The Chorus of Westerly is always happy to hear from new adult singers who would like to be a part of our main symphonic performance chorus which prepares and presents all our symphonic concerts, a cappella concerts, and Pops concerts, as part of our concert season. Adults must audition for this ensemble.
For those interested, please contact the office (see above) to schedule an audition appointment with Andrew Howell. The audition process for new adult singers involves singing prepared pieces and vocal exercises with Mr. Howell.
Adult Audition Components:
1. Prepared song or choral excerpt of your choice (bring a copy for you and Mr. Howell)
2. Prepared except from one of these four pieces:
Schubert selection, Handel selection, Vaughan Williams selection, or Brahms selection
You will need to sing your voice part while accompaniment is played. Click the links above to download the music. If you have difficulties, please call or email the office via the contact information listed above.
3. Sight Reading Exercises
Mr. Howell will inform you if you have passed your audition or not after it concludes. If you have passed the audition, he will review with you membership dues, membership requirements for rehearsal and schedule, and provide you registration information. If you have questions about any of this, you can email him at andrew@chorusofwesterly.org or call the number above.
