August 28, 2014 – The Valley Symphony Chorale and Dr. David Means, Chorale Conductor announces the beginning of the Chorale Auditions to take place on Mondays in September at the UTPA Campus located at 1201 W. University Drive (off of Schunior) in the Temporary Music Building, Rooms 1.101 & 1.105 in Edinburg for all returning and NEW Chorale volunteers.
Dr. Means will set up small group auditions composed of (2 – 4 singers) per group. During these auditions, singers will first be taught a few short excerpts from the new repertoire to give the conductor an opportunity to get to know the individual voices of the chorale. NOBODY WILL BE REQUIRED TO SING ALONE! The VSO Chorale is seeking experienced and flexible choral singers who read music and can quickly make adjustments to sound, rhythm and pitch during rehearsals.
Auditions will begin on Monday, September 8th – SOPRANO FEMALES ONLY | Monday September 15th – ALTO FEMALES ONLY | and Monday, September 22nd – MEN ONLY. The first official full rehearsal for all new and returning Chorale Members will begin on Monday, September 29 at the UTPA Temporary Music Building.
