Your singer will meet with our choir directors so that they can get to know them and assess where they are in their musical development. For our younger singers, this interview/audition allows our directors to have one-on-one time with your singer and help them feel more comfortable for the first day of rehearsal. We play some musical games, sing together, and children can sing a little by themselves if they like.

For our older singers, the audition gives our directors the opportunity to make the wisest choice for their placement in the NCCC program.

Placement decisions are based on the singers’ prior musical experience, musical aptitude, and pitch-matching ability. Singers will be notified by email where they have been placed in the NCCC program.

Placement in Bel Canto or Bella Voce requires previous experience and aptitude for participation in either of these advanced groups.

To schedule your audition please submit the form below.

All Singers:

Please prepare one verse of My Country 'tis of Thee solo to share. You may use the audio file and lyrics as a reference.

My country tis of thee

Sweet land of liberty

Of thee I sing

Land where my fathers died

Land of the pilgrim’s pride

From every mountain side

Let freedom ring
