Audition Process

When you arrive for your audition, we will have you fill out a short questionnaire that will help us get to know you better.

At the beginning of your audition we will give you a short warm-up. The warm-up will test your range.

After you warm up you will be asked to sing back a several short series of notes to test your pitch matching.

Next, you will sing a short solo piece. Please prepare to sing a verse and a chorus of a song that you feel comfortable singing. Feel free to let your personality shine through during your solo. The most important thing is to choose something you have fun singing!

Last, there will be a short melody provided. If you feel comfortable, we will ask you to sight sing the phrase. Do not worry about this part too much; the ability to sight sing is not required in the Barbershop Sweethearts.

We may email you following auditions if we would like you to attend our callbacks. At callbacks, you will learn a part of a song we sing. Callbacks are designed to focus your learning and blending abilities.

We look forward to seeing you at auditions! Also, for all the men who have been asking us about the group, this is in fact an all-female barbershop group. Sorry!
