Audition Information
The KCS is accepting new members in all sections for the 2022/23 season, subject to an audition. Some choral experience and the ability to follow a score will be considered an asset. Choristers are expected to attend all rehearsals and performances during the season, and to spend time working on repertoire between rehearsals.
What To Expect:
Auditions begin on Tuesday September 6. Prospective members will be asked to prepare a short selection of music chosen by the Artistic Director – please click the link below to view the passage for this year.
