The best fit for the UA choral program is someone who:
- Sang in high school (or college for those graduate students!) and misses it.
- Has piano, band, or orchestra ensemble experience and is interested in experiencing the joys of choral music.
- Has never sung in a choir before and wants to learn what it is all about.
- Is an undergraduate or graduate student, any major.
- In short, everyone has a place in a UA choral ensemble!

The voicing will consist of:
- Vocalizing— You will be guided through warm-ups to listen to your range, tone quality, and intonation. No advance preparation is needed.
- Aural Skills— You will be played a series of pitches on the piano and asked to sing them back. No advance preparation is needed.
- Sight Reading— You will receive a short exercise upon arrival at the audition space and be asked to perform it. You are welcome to use a syllable system (solfège, etc.) if you wish, but it is not required. You will be given time to study the exercise before reading it aloud.
