Thank you for expressing an interest in auditioning for the Harlequin Singers!
In order to get a taste of what singing with the Harlequin Singers will be like, we invite you to join us for two or three rehearsals before a formal audition takes place.
Our weekly rehearsals for the 2024-25 season resume on Thursday, September 5th and are from 7 pm until 9:30 pm. We currently practice at St. Luke’s Anglican Church located in Burlington. Rehearsals are a key component to ensuring you feel confident when it comes time to perform in our concerts!
—————————————————–
Formal auditions occur twice a year: the last week of January and September.
The next auditions will take place on Saturday, September, 21st at St. Luke’s – time TBC.
The audition takes approximately 10 minutes and is a three-part process:
1. Warm-up and range check
2. Sing a song from a musical of your choice, or you may sing your part from one of the songs we are currently working on. Our accompanist, Laura Pin will be on hand should you wish to have piano accompaniment. You may also accompany yourself or sing a cappella
3. Sight singing segment
We want you to be comfortable during the audition because we all want the same thing… to hear you at your best!
