Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Call 215-995-3118 or email thephiladelphiachorus@gmail.com to book an audition by appointment..

Check with the group before you show up. You need to sign up first.

What to expect

The audition asks you to sing scales and warm-ups, then one song of your choice in any style, and to sight-read a short excerpt. The page does not say how long it takes. Once you join, you rehearse on Monday evenings in University City and sing in concerts each season.

Tips for your first visit

  • Pick a song you know well, and plan on accompaniment if you can, since the chorus prefers it.
  • When you book, ask how long the audition runs and where rehearsals meet, since the site does not say.
  • Book a time first. Auditions are by appointment only.

Newcomer welcome

Takes some effort for newcomers (2 out of 5). Why we say this: Joining starts with a booked audition by appointment, which includes a sung test, so the way in is clear but a newcomer cannot watch a rehearsal first..
