FAQ

How do I schedule an audition?
Contact our conductor, Matthew Lewis at (212) 842-1469 or stgeorgeschoralsociety@yahoo.com.

Do I have to prepare for my audition?
Relax! All of us have gone through what you’ll be going through. Just bring a piece of music that you like to sing.

Are there annual dues?
Yes. Annual dues cover our two-concert season. Members are also obliged to purchase four concert tickets for each concert at a discounted price. Music scores are available for purchase, but you can also provide your own.

Do you need my voice part?
All voice parts are welcome to audition.

Do I have to be a trained singer?
All members should be able to sing on pitch in accurate rhythm. Sight-singing skill at some level is essential. Our group is comprised of singers of varied abilities and we provide professional section leaders for rehearsals and concerts to ensure an advanced level of choral singing.

What musical experience should I have?
Previous experience is preferred but your skills will improve, as our rehearsals provide excellent guidance in singing and considerable music education. Attending our Summer Sings is a great way to brush up on your sight-reading and choral singing.
