Level I, II, III, IV and High School
Sacramento Children’s Chorus welcomes children in second (2nd) through twelfth (12th) to audition for the region's premier youth choral program.

The Audition Process
Our goal is for the audition process to be a very positive and happy experience for all children. The audition gives the conductor the opportunity to get to know your child and a way to find out his or her musical potential. Each singer meets with the conductor individually. They are asked to sing some simple vocal exercises, echo some rhythm and melodic patterns and sing “America” otherwise known as "My Country Tis of Thee."

Most of our singers come to us with very little to no musical experience. The conductors are looking for the singer’s ability to match pitch and their level of rhythmic and melodic memory. If your child is older than 5th grade, some previous experience is helpful. Other than reviewing “America”, no preparation is necessary for the audition.

Families are notified by mail or e-mail within a couple of days as to the outcome of the audition. Please assure your child that this is a very friendly and positive experience.
