Auditions

Our membership consists of graduate students and young professionals, many of whom are alumni of college a cappella groups. Prior to the pandemic, we rehearsed one evening a week (typically Sundays, 6:00-8:15pm) and held practice in members' homes. Currently, our model is adaptive to the ever-evolving needs of the group during the pandemic, including outdoor rehearsals on Sunday afternoons, social activities via Zoom on Sunday evenings, creating virtual choir videos asynchronously, and attending online workshops to develop our musicianship skills. We expect to return to our prior model of weekly indoor rehearsal when the group feels comfortable doing so. Our repertoire is a diverse mix of Jewish, Israeli, and World music and has featured songs in English, Hebrew, Ladino, Luganda, Portuguese, and Yiddish.

Audition slots are approximately 20 minutes and will include range checks, tonal recall exercises, and learning a sample of our repertoire. Please come prepared with a short solo to sing a cappella to the group.
