Do you know a child who loves to sing?
While prior musical training is not necessary to participate in the Jacksonville Children’s Chorus, an audition is required for singers in grades 2-12. Children will be placed in the appropriate choir group based on their skills, maturity, and readiness. Singers do not need to have a prepared audition piece. The audition process is quick and simple. A conductor will listen for the singer’s ability to match pitches.
An additional virtual or in-person audition may be required to do the following:
- to learn a simple tune
- to hold one’s voice part against others.
There is no fee to audition. However, upon placement into a choir, a registration fee will be required. There is also tuition to cover a portion of the actual cost of the program. The cost varies based on the choir level. Full and partial scholarships are available based on financial need.
Here's a little video preview of the audition process.
Auditions for singers in grades 2-12 are being held by appointment only.
