For the initial audition we are asking for a 30 to 60 second memorized song. If you have sheet music in the correct key, please bring it as an accompanist is provided. We will also allow “a capella” (without sheet music) auditions. *Performances* begin Friday December 1st and end Saturday, December 30th. Performance dates are mainly Fri/Sat/Sun with a few Thursdays as well. There are no performances Dec. 24/25/26/27, allowing for a window of time for performers to travel if they wish. *Rehearsals* begin approx. October 21st. The Youth Ensemble will average 2-4 rehearsals per week (less early on and more as opening draws closer).
