All-District Choir Audition Procedure
- You will register when we arrive at OPHS. You will receive a sight-reading “card” (must be turned in when you sight-read) and your audition number/sticker (must be worn throughout the day).
- Be at your solo room at scheduled time. Have the book (not a copy) for the accompanist and a book for you to look at (if needed).
- Go to the sight-reading room before or after your solo time. There are no scheduled times. Stand in line. ONLY STUDENTS WITH A.M. SOLO TIMES WILL BE PERMITTED TO SIGHT-READ IN THE MORNING. ONLY STUDENTS WITH P.M. SOLO TIMES WILL BE PERMITTED TO SIGHT-READ IN THE AFTERNOON.
- The solo rooms always run ahead of schedule, so if you have a late time you will probably go at least an hour early.
- We will leave as soon as everyone is done with their solo and sight-reading. I estimate that we will back by 5:00pm, but be prepared for 6:00pm at the latest.
