2021 AUDITION INFORMATION
A determination on whether the Senior Honors Choir Auditions will be held in person or virtually has not been made for the fall of 2021. The auditions committee will make this decision by June 15 depending on the ability for school systems to travel to the audition location. If held in person, the auditions will take place on October 9. If held virtually, we will use OpusEvent again this year to facilitate the virtual audition process.
Regardless of whether the audition is live or virtual, students will perform a prepared song, "If Music Be the Food of Love" and complete one sight-reading example chosen from several at random.
Soprano and Tenors will sight-read in the keys of Eb, F, or G major. Altos and Basses will sight-read in the keys of A, Bb, or D major. The vocal range for the sight-reading is from "Ti" (below) to "La" (above) the starting tonic pitch. Please contact the VMEA Senior Honors Choir Chairs with any questions.
Repertoire: "If Music Be the Food of Love", Henry Purcell
Keys:
Soprano 1/Tenor 1: B-flat major
Soprano 2/Tenor 2: A-flat major
