Pre-Audition Solo Workshop

Students who are thinking of auditioning to be a soloist are encouraged to attend the Solo Pre-Audition Workshop. This is not a pre-requisite of auditioning, however, it will give students information about how to present themselves at their audition and what the panel will be looking for in a potential soloist.

Choir Teachers or families can book students in to the Pre-Audition Workshop.

• Tuesday 9 May from 4:15 - 5:45pm at Walkerville PS, 159 Stephen Terrace, WALKERVILLE
• Wednesday 17 May from 4:15 - 5:45pm at Darlington PS, 9-11 White Cres, SEACOMBE GARDENS

Bookings are capped at 50 students.
Please note that you will need to complete one Pre-Audition form per student.
