Audition Materials
The audition will consist of warm-ups, ear training, optional sight-reading, a blending quartet exercise, a solo of your choice, and a short interview. For the blending exercise, you will be singing "Softly, As I Leave You," measures 1-17, in a quartet with current members of Whim. Please prepare a voice part of your choice - we suggest trying all four and choosing the one you feel most comfortable singing, even if it isn't your usual voice part. For your solo, please prepare a verse and chorus of any song you feel best shows off your voice.
​
We've provided you all with a Google Drive folder with MP3s, Midis, MuseScore, and Sibelius files to help you learn the part—let us know if you need any help downloading or using any files!
