Asheville Symphony Chorus
Auditions

Do you love to make music? We'd love for you to join ASC and help us bring the beauty of classical music and beyond to Western North Carolina. We rehearse once per week on Tuesday nights from 7pm-9:30pm at First Congregational United Church of Christ in downtown Asheville. We warm up. We practice hard. We have a lot of fun.
​
ASC holds auditions each August and January. For the 2023-2024 season, auditions will run as follows:

• When: Due to high demand, we've extended our auditions to August 22nd and 29th from 5:30pm - 6:30pm. If those times fill up, we may be able to schedule one-off auditions before the 29th, but we must receive your request by August 26th. 
  
  • ​​Auditions are 15 minutes long. Please fill out the form below and provide a couple available dates/times. Our membership chair will reach out to confirm your final time.
• Where: First Congregational United Church of Christ (20 Oak Street, Asheville, NC 28801)
• What you'll sing: We ask that you prepare a short piece of music that you sing well. It can be an aria, art song, hymn, or other piece. It should show off your range and musicality. Please bring a copy of the music for the accompanist. We'll also take you through a few exercises to check for range, tone, pitch matching, and sight reading.
• What you'll bring: Please bring a copy of the Audition Form and the ASC New Member Registration Form​. Please also review our Membership Information Form, which has critical information about member expectations and this season's concert dates. Please keep a copy of this form for your records.

ASC is committed to diversity and inclusivity in our roster. We welcome auditions from adults of all vocal backgrounds. If you've sung in a church choir, college chorale, jazz choir, musical theater, opera, a band, or just in the shower, we'd love to hear you and see if we'd be a good fit together.
