We’re gearing up for another busy year here at SOUND, and we’re on the hunt for new talent! There are a few spaces available and we’re looking forward to welcoming some new singers to the group.
Auditions will be held in early September in central London, and applicants will need to be able to make weekly rehearsals on Tuesday evenings. Frequency of gigs varies, but it’s typically 2-3 a term, with most people attending most gigs.
At the audition we’ll ask singers to do three things:
- We’ll do a quick warm up with you so that you’re relaxed and ready to sing.
- Next we’d like to hear a short section of a song of your choice. 1 minute is about the right length (a verse and a chorus is usually perfect). It’s best if it’s unaccompanied, and pop or jazz is best for us.
- Finally we’ll do a mini rehearsal of one of our pieces to see how you do picking up new music.
It’s very informal, and though we understand you’ll be nervous, we try to make it as enjoyable as possible! If you’re interested in auditioning, please fill in our audition form and we’ll arrange auditions with as many people as we’re able to.
You might find it helpful to read our Frequently Asked Questions if there’s anything else you want to know before applying, or if anything isn’t covered you can email auditions@soundchoir.com. We’re excited about hearing some fresh new voices.
Thanks in advance to all who apply and good luck!
