GC Choir Audition Form
Auditioning to be in a Guerin Catholic Choir couldn't be easier! At the end of this form, there will be a link to sign up for a 5-minute audition slot. Auditions will be held on July 23 and 24 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Media Center. Social distancing will be observed, and there will be students there to make sure you are really prepared! Answers to FAQ are below, but feel free to reach out to Mrs. Goćur (agocur@guerincatholic.org) with any other questions you may have!

-What will I do at my audition?
Sing "Happy Birthday" or the National Anthem - your choice!
Sing a couple warm ups with Mrs. Goćur (Don't worry if you've never done this before!)
Sing a simple sight-reading exercise

-Do I have to audition if I'm already in choir?
If you are in GoldenVoice or Cecilia and want to remain in that choir, you do not have to audition again. If you would like to join a choir that you're not currently a member of, you will have to audition for that choir. This is most common for girls who are in Cecilia and would like to be in GoldenVoice. Sounds of Providence members must audition annually.

-What if I've never been in choir before?
Don't worry about it! That's literally my job to teach you how to sing! I won't put anyone in a choir in which I don't think they can be successful. As long as you are willing to put in the work, I can teach you how to sing!

-What if I'm in band or orchestra? Can I do both?
Absolutely! One of the unique strengths of our department is that you can do it all! At the beginning of the year, we will discuss how to split rehearsal time, and you will be expected to be adequately prepared for all ensembles of which you are a member.

-Does this mean I'll be in the Music Kairos?
Yes, participation in any music ensemble means that you must be a part of the Music Kairos. This is because some of our most important rehearsals happen during Kairos, and we want to make sure everyone's schedule is set up to be there!

-How will we keep the auditions as safe as possible?
Please do not arrive more than 5 minutes in advance for your audition time. There will be someone just inside the main entrance to check you in for your audition. After you are checked in, you will go directly to the media center and either begin your audition immediately or sit in the designated waiting area. Masks are obligatory, except for when you are singing. During your audition, there will be a spot marking where you should stand. After your audition, you will head directly out of the building, so that others can be as safe as possible during their audition. Thank you for your cooperation with these guidelines!

Please describe any musical training you have had outside of Guerin Catholic. (voice lessongs, singing at your parish, piano lessons, etc. It's ok if this is blank.)
Please list all activities that you are in/plan to be in that would conflict with choir rehearsals: (athletics, extra-curriculars, etc.) PLEASE NOTE: The expectation is that in-season athletes will attend the first 30 minutes of after-school rehearsals, and then go to their practice. This is extremely important to the success of our choirs, and consistent absences at these rehearsals will negatively impact your grade.
What voice part do you prefer singing? *
I understand that if I am selected to be a part of this exclusive choral ensemble, that I will be assigned to the Music Department Kairos. I am aware of the rehearsal schedule, and I understand that I will receive a grade based on attendance for my involvement in GoldenVoice, Cecilia, and/or Sounds of Providence. I understand that it is my responsibility to manage my schedule and my grades to accommodate this rehearsal schedule. *
After you finish this form, will you sign up for an audition time via the link you're given? **You must scroll to July 23 and 24 to find available times! *
