"Preparing for a Successful Audition"

Turn stress into success! In this master class, taught by WCMS voice faculty Laura DellaFera and Penny Singh, participants will learn how to:

• Prepare yourself and your music for a successful audition
• Own the stage with calm and confidence
• Communicate with your accompanist
• Be bold and share what makes you unique during your audition

Open and free of charge to all WCMS voice students. Singers may perform upon recommendation from their teacher; all are invited to observe and learn. Performers should prepare either 16-32 bars of a musical theater piece or a one- to two- minute exceprt from a classical or choral piece. If possible, music should be memorized. Performers must bring a copy of their music for the accompanist, in the same key in which they plan to sing, and should bring a pencil and a water bottle. 

Held in person in Nichols Hall. Face masks are required for all in attendance.
