How To Join

Attend three chapter meetings, then notify the Vice President of Chapter Development to begin the membership process. You will be given a voice audition to determine your vocal range and part placement in the chorus. During the audition, you will be asked to demonstrate the ability to produce an acceptable tone quality, pitch matching ability, and harmonization with other parts. You are NOT required to be proficient in reading music, however, it would be helpful, and you should be able to carry a tune.

Once you have met the requirements for membership in the chapter, you will be given voice part training tapes to learn the current repertoire. You will also be issued staging and choreography materials to assist in becoming a "riser qualified" member.

For additional information, contact Jim Niebel
