Solo Audition Information

For each of the following, please submit a video recording of yourself singing with the audition track in the background.  This way, we can hear you with the piano accompaniment and choir parts, where applicable.  (We will only hear piano with your solo in Ignite.  For Shed a Little Light and The Song of the Count, we will hear the piano and choral parts with your solo.)  ​

We would like to have all auditions submitted by Wednesday at midnight. 
*Ignite (alto/soprano solo) – beginning to measure 12.
*Shed a Little Light (alto/soprano duet part) – all of section A.
*Shed a Little Light (tenor/bass solo) – all of sections A and B.
*The Song of the Count (tenor/bass solo) – baritone solo beginning to measure 7 followed by the Bass part from measures 8 to measure 25.

When you're finished your audition, please send your video to [email protected].

You can:

  • attach the video (remember, you don't necessarily need to film the ENTIRE song so the video will hopefully be short enough to send)
  • share a link inviting us to your dropbox/google drive/onedrive (again, to [email protected])
  • If you're having trouble submitting that way, please email us ASAP so we can trouble shoot together in time. 

Tracks to record along to

Please do NOT use headphones for this audition. 

Play the track out loud (preferably on a different device than the one you're recording with) and sing along. We should hear your voice AND the track in the recording you submit.

For "Shed A Little Light": Use the "solo practice" tracks to practice. The track you use to record your audition is called "solo audition track"
In the audition track, you WON'T hear the soloists. This will allow you to make the solo your own AND show that you are strong and independent on the solo part.
