Thank you for your interest in AYC 2019!
AYC is the province’s honour choir for singers ages 16-22, and provides a unique opportunity for excellent young choristers from across Alberta to join forces in the pursuit of choral music excellence. The guest conductor for AYC 2019 is Dr. Sandra Snow, Professor of Choral Conducting and Music Education at Michigan State University.
Singers can apply for an AYC audition by submitting this form no later than Tuesday 30 April 2019.
Once the application for audition has been received, an Audition Packet will be sent to the email provided below. The Audition Packet contains detailed audition instructions. The audition is made up of 4 parts: two simple vocal exercises, a prepared piece (which can be your part in one of the pieces your choir is currently singing), a new piece (we will provide a PDF score to you), and a brief questionnaire. You will submit your audition materials online - nothing is mailed in.
The deadline to submit your audition materials is Friday 24 May 2019.
Accepted choristers will need to complete a registration form and submit their program fee. The fee for choristers is $295, payable after official acceptance into the choir. A limited number of bursaries are available.
