Further Instructions

Track 1 - Chromatic Scale (unaccompanied)

  • Perform an ascending and descending chromatic scale on a neutral syllable (ex. “doo” or “la”).  Only the starting pitch may be given. 
  • Suggested scales: Sopranos start on E4, Altos start on A3, Tenors start on E3, Baritones start on Bb2, Basses start on G2.  (Feel free to choose a new starting point at your discretion if these pitches go outside your student’s range)
  • Suggested tempo: Quarter note = 70, sung a cappella


Track 2 - Sing Along with Recording

  • Starting at m.103 of “I Can't Believe You're In Love With Me,” sing your part along with the provided full audio track through m.118.
  • Make sure that your voice can be heard just slightly over the other voices (considering your blend!).
  • Do your best to have correct pitches, rhythms, syllables, and match tempo/style/timbre. 
  • ***Basses and Tenors, there is a mistake in the score. Follow the indicated pitches written below the marked sections in m.110 & m.118 (you'll hear it correctly in the practice tracks).

Track 3 - Part Singing (with minus track)

  • "Minus Tracks" include every part EXCEPT for yours and demonstrates your ability to hold your own without any reinforcement.
  • For the audition, record your part singing with the appropriate minus track (ex: Sopranos will sing with the "Soprano Minus Track").  Do this for m.34-48.
  • Follow the click track to help with tempo.  
  • Do your best to have correct pitches and rhythms while showing appropriate style, articulation, dynamics, and tone.​
