Auditions include warm-ups and vocalizing to determine voice range and timbre, a sight-reading exercise and/or literature reading, and one brief solo to be prepared in advance. Regular rehearsals are held Tuesday evenings from 7:00-9:30 PM at First Presbyterian Church, 716 College Ave, Racine WI 53403, from late August through mid-May.
