Our next auditions will be held in Autumn 2011, for entry into the choir in 2012. At an audition the child will be asked to sing a song of their own choice, for which a pianist will be provided. We would prefer it if the song were from memory. He or she will be asked to sing some scales and some aural tests together with a short sight-reading piece.

It is not expected that the child will necessarily be able to sing at sight very well, as this is one of the aspects of teaching offered on the courses; however it is important that the applicant has a natural musical ability.
