2012-2013 SEASON AUDITIONS

Audition Dates:  Wednesday, May 2nd – 7:00 p.m.

Saturday, May 5th – 9:00 a.m.

In Red Rose Children’s Choir, singers don’t just sing—they grow. They grow to love singing more than ever. They grow to feel comfortable sharing their talents, which helps their young voices—and their self-esteem—flourish. And they grow socially, meeting singers from neighboring communities and forming friendships that last for years.
But that’s just the beginning. Red Rose Children’s Choir offers training that is second to none. In a group setting, children receive vocal instruction and learn to read music, nurturing their love for and understanding of this art form. Through a varied repertoire, singers are introduced to different musical styles, cultures and languages.  Older choir members have opportunities for solo performances and international tours, and to work as leaders for the younger singers. In so many ways, Red Rose Children’s Choir offers a chance for young singers to bloom.

How do I know if my child is ready? Perhaps the most important question for you to consider is: Does my child love to sing? Experience has shown that motivated students naturally excel and succeed in the RRCCLC. We invite you to bring your child to one of our concerts so they can see for themselves what fun it is to sing in the RRCCLC.

The ability to sing in tune develops at a time that is unique to each young child. Like learning to play a sport, it is a skill each child masters step by step. We only accept children who are able to match pitches accurately. For a child not yet able to match pitches accurately, choir would be a difficult experience for them, and they might not enjoy it. However, we will invite them to return for an audition the following year. In many cases, we’ve seen children who have not been quite ready to sing in a choir have waited and auditioned successfully a year later.
