Young singers in Grades 3 through 8 are invited to audition. Mature and enthusiastic singers outside this grade range, and homeschoolers outside CTK, are also invited to audition.
Auditions will take place in a low stress, conversational environment. They will assess enthusiasm for music making, pitch matching, and self-management skills. We are not looking for perfection, but rather musical instinct and positive attitude. (When communicating with your child, you can refer to auditions as a ‘meetup’ or ‘conversation’, if there is perceived stress around the word audition.) No special preparation for the audition is necessary, as materials from regular school classes will be used.
Membership in the Schola Cantorum is limited to 30 singers and is not automatic.
