Auditioning is simple: show up<\/strong> to the Chapel South Cloister (outside, facing the quad) during any of the above times\u00ad. No appointment is needed and there\u2019s nothing to prepare in advance. Just be warmed up and ready to sing.<\/p>\n

About us:<\/strong> We’re around two dozen Trinity students who love to sing challenging choral music. Our members hold a variety of religious and spiritual beliefs, and come from a diverse range of backgrounds and academic majors. Our repertoire ranges from ancient chants to music composed today.<\/p>\n

Commitment:<\/strong> Our weekly rehearsals are on Mondays and Wednesdays from 4:30\u20136:00 p.m.<\/strong> at the Chapel. We sing at a variety of Chapel services throughout the academic year, including most Sundays during the semester from 3:00\u20135:00 p.m. <\/strong>We also sing at major college occasions, the popular Christmas Festival of Lessons and Carols, and perform concerts and make recordings.<\/p>\n

Employment and Wellness Credit:<\/strong> Membership in the group is a significant responsibility, and we are paid student-employees of the Chapel. This job is eligible for student work-study. Participation can also fulfill a Wellness Credit.<\/p>\n

About the Audition:<\/strong> We encourage you to arrive warmed-up and ready to sing<\/strong>. Our director will lead you through singing some scales, then ask you to sightread a few bars of music\u2014it\u2019s everyone\u2019s least favorite part, just try your best. Lastly, a few current singers will teach you a short piece.<\/p>\n

Any questions:<\/strong> Please feel free to reach out to our president, Abigail Maiello \u201927<\/a>\u00a0or our director, Prof. Christopher Houlihan \u201909.<\/a><\/p>\n
