Audition Information

Our low-stress, reciprocal audition process
(it's a mutual audition)

A Peace of Heart Choir audition consists of two parts. The most important part of the audition is actually you auditioning us. We feel that it's really important that you get to decide whether we're the right choir for you. Auditioning us involves just coming to one of our rehearsals and sitting through it, to see if you like the music, the people, and the vibe. The other part of the audition, you auditioning for us, is simple and short -- just be prepared to sing 60 seconds or so of your favorite song, in any language, in any style or genre, as long as it's a capella (without instruments or CD/tape). There will only be three or four choir members in the room with you, so it's not like standing in front of an audience or anything.

We need someone like you...

We accept talented amateurs and professionals alike.
You'll need to be able to:

• blend with other voices
• sing a cappella (without instruments or accompaniment)
• harmonize
• sing arrangements for multiple voice parts
• commit to the choir's mission
• be sufficiently available to rehearse and sing on short notice for at least some engagements.

Ability to read music is helpful but not as important. Instrumental, dance, or other performers are also welcome. People of all races, ages, ethnicities, genders, gender expressions, sexual orientations, income levels, religions, beliefs, political affiliations, national origins, immigration statuses, and abilities/disabilities are welcome.
