UW Choir Auditions are September 28 and 29

Auditioning for choir at the University of Washington involves a sight-singing evaluation and an opportunity for our faculty to hear you perform. Please come with a prepared piece to sing for us (an art song, folksong, or other national song). If possible, bring an extra copy of your song with you for our accompanist.

How to sign up for an audition

There are two steps:

First, please tell us about yourself and your musical background with this form.

Second, go to ClickBook and choose your audition time.

Instructions for ClickBook:

• Click on Choral Audition (although it says 8 min., your audition will last approximately 15 min.)
• Click on either Monday, Sept. 28, or Tuesday, Sept. 29
• Click on your preferred audition time
• Enter your information. (This third-party website will send you a reminder of your audition time.) Your information will not be used in any way other than to contact you for your audition.
• Click Submit

After the audition

After we have heard all those auditioning, callback lists are created.

You will be called back for the ensemble we feel fits you best. You may be called back to more than one ensemble, and should attend both callbacks.

Once the personnel of the ensemble has been finalized, add codes will be given out and you can register.

Callback Schedule for 2009

Callbacks for Chamber Singers begin on Wednesday, September 30th at 12:30pm in Brechemin Auditorium (Music 126).

Callbacks for University Chorale begin on Wednesday, September 30th at 3:30pm in Music 35.
