SIGN UP FOR AN AUDITION
WHAT TO EXPECT AT THE AUDITION
The purpose of the audition process is to place choristers in the ensemble that is right for them - that is, the ensemble in which they will feel comfortable, but challenged.
We recognize that children come to CCW from a variety of experiences. Our Artistic Director designs the auditions to feel warm, inclusive, playful, and fun - whether your child has previous experience or if this is their first-ever audition!
Students will generally be auditioned in groups of peers, lasting around 30 minutes. This time allows us to get to know each child and assess their musical readiness with vocal exploration, echo singing, and the familiar song, "Happy Birthday." Students do not need to prepare anything in advance of the audition.
Audition results and ensemble placements are communicated separately, a few days after the audition.
PREP & TRAINING ENSEMBLES - UNAUDITIONED, RISING GRADES K-2
Children entering into Kindergarten through 2nd Grade in 2024-2025 are not required to audition, but are invited to join our open entry Prep class (K to Grade 1) or Training Ensemble (Grade 2 to 3).
For students entering into Grade 3 to 12 in 2025-2026, placement in our ensembles is by audition. Students who audition are not required to prepare anything, but will be asked to undertake a series of vocal warm ups and exercises.
