Menomonie – Auditioning for a choir is about more than just a performance. It’s a chance to challenge yourself, connect with fellow music enthusiasts, and experience the joy of collective singing. Choirs foster a sense of community, discipline, and artistic fulfillment that few other activities can match. Choral singing is good for you!
The Menomonie Singers will hold auditions for all sections (soprano, alto, tenor and bass) on August 18th and 19th at 6:00 pm, at First Congregational United Church of Christ, 420 Wilson Avenue, Menomonie.
The Menomonie Singers have been in existence since 1989 and present four regular concerts of choral music per year. Under the leadership of Brian Klein, conductor, the choir will present concerts on November 15 and 16 in Eau Claire and Menomonie.
Participants must be 18 or older or post high school. Previous choir experience is helpful but not necessary.
There is no need to prepare a piece; the audition will include the following:
– A range check
– A sight-singing exercise
– Musicality showcase (singers will be asked to sing one of the following: Silent Night, Happy Birthday, or My Country Tis of Thee.
