Q: What piece should I audition with? Are you looking for a particular style?
A: The choir has a diverse repertoire; you can therefore sing any genre from classical to pop. What matters the most is how you sound, so choose a song that best reflects your voice.
Q: How many spaces are you looking to fill?
A: It all depends on how many singers are returning to the choir this season. Additionally, we need to have a balance of parts.
Q: Is sight reading mandatory?
A: Sight reading skills are definitely a plus. These requirements can be relaxed for those who are strong soloists or either Tenors or Basses.
Q: When will I be notified about my audition results?
A: We let everyone know the results after the final day of auditions.
Q: When do you perform?
A: We have two main concerts per year: the first Saturday and Sunday in June, and the first Saturday and Sunday in December. We also have other exciting gigs that come up throughout the year and perform as we are called upon.
Q: What is your concert attire? Do you wear robes?
A: The choir wears all black. No, we do not wear robes.
Q: I haven’t sung in a choir or taken voice lessons before. Will I be good enough to make the choir?
A: Generally, most of our singers have choral or solo experience. If you have any questions regarding your abilities, you can always take a voice lesson from one of our directors to see where you stand.
Q: Do your singers get paid?
A: We are a non-profit organization; therefore, the singers do not get paid.
Q: Are there any choir fees or dues?
A: Yes, all singers contribute dues of $195 per season.
Q: I noticed you are singing with the L.A. Philharmonic. Can I audition for that piece?
A: Sorry, we have already selected the singers to perform this piece. Please see us live at the Shrine Auditorium on February 4th.
Q: When and where do you rehearse?
A: We rehearse on Thursday nights from 7:30 pm to 10:00 pm at St. Andrews Lutheran Church in West Los Angeles.
