Auditions for Spring 2012 will take place between 1pm and 4pm on January 9th and 10th. An audition is required to participate in CU Singers. The audition will consist of singing “My Country Tis of Thee ” and some short vocal exercises. Interested students should e-mail Sarah Runge to schedule a 10 min. audition time. Men’s Glee (MUSIC 372) and Women’s Glee (MUSIC 371) are non-auditioned ensembles that simply require students to register for the appropriate course and attend the first rehearsal, Thursday, January 12 at 12:30 for Men’s Glee and 2:00 for Women’s Glee. |
Tigeroar and TakeNote Tigeroar (male, MUSIC 341) and TakeNote (female, MUSIC 342) are small, a cappella ensembles comprised of approximately 16 students and focusing primarily on popular music. Membership is through audition and requires participation in Men’s Glee, Women’s Glee, or CU Singers. Audition dates for TakeNote and Tigeroar for Spring 2012 will be posted shortly. For the initial audition, students should complete an application and prepare a brief solo passage from a familiar pop piece. The solo, to be sung a cappella, should demonstrate musicality, tone quality, and stage presence. Call-back auditions will follow. Applications will be available at the first rehearsals of CU Singers, Men’s Glee, and Women’s Glee. |
