Spaces are limited, so not everyone is placed. We are looking for singers whose voices sound healthy, who have a good sense of pitch, who are focused and pay attention in their audition, and who are willing to commit wholeheartedly to the group.
We start sending audition results on June 15. After June 15, we'll email your results within a couple of weeks of your audition.
