Auditions for 2012 Chorus Spring Semester PDF Print E-mail

The Children’s Chorus of Collin County will be holding auditions for the Spring 2012 Season.  The Children’s Chorus is for students in 4th-6th grades, and the Youth Chorus is for students in 7th-11 grades.

The Chorus is a non-profit organization and is tuition based.  Rehearsals are on Monday evenings, September - May in Plano.   Membership selection is by audition.

Each audition will take around 10-15 minutes.  It will be informal and no previous experience or preparation is needed.  The audition will consist of a short vocalizing session that will focus on the singing voice as well as posture and breathing.  There will also be a few exercises that deal with repetitions of vocal and rhythmic patterns, singing in parts, and sight singing.

Qualifications for membership in the Chorus are a clear singing voice, a strong sense of pitch, musical and vocal readiness, emotional maturity, good attitude, and ability to focus.  There must also be a commitment to regular attendance at rehearsals and performances.

I will ask your child to sing something for me without accompaniment.  They may sing something of their own choosing or a familiar song, such as "Happy Birthday".

I will tell you at the close of the audition whether or not your child has been accepted into the Chorus. If you wish to go ahead and make a commitment to the Chorus at that time, you may do so by signing a commitment form and paying a $50 non-refundable deposit which will be applied to the $250 tuition which is due on or before January 9, 2012.

If you are interested in scheduling an audition for the 2012 Spring Season, please call the Chorus office at 972-618-4536 or email the director at  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
