Now scheduling auditions to be held Tuesday, January 4, 2011 for the 2011 winter/spring season!

Interested singers should contact Dr. Poovey, the RBC Director, at 271-2240 to schedule an audition now! Auditions will take place at St. Paul's Episcopal Church, 25 Westminster Rd., Rochester NY.

Boys in the 4th grade or older are eligible to audition for the Concert Choir.

Boys in the third grade or younger who wish to sing in the Training Choir do not need to audition, but are requested to schedule an appointment to meet the Artistic Director.

Auditions last about 30 minutes and are held individually, except in September, January, and June when a special audition night event is held.

The Rochester Boys Choir program, dependent on choir level, consists of one or two weekly rehearsals September through May, at least four formal concerts per year, occasional appearances at various local venues and promotional events, multi-level music theory instruction, performance skills training, fun social events and tours to distant locations in the U.S. and Canada. The Touring Choir boys most recently launched an exciting tour to Buffalo and Grand Island, New York.

Performances have included appearances with the Rochester Oratorio Society, the Gregory Kunde Chorale, annual appearances in Welcome Yule, a holiday concert with the Sampler Trio, numerous engagements with traveling boys choirs including the National Boys Choir of Australia, the St. Thomas Choir of Men and Boys, the American Boychoir and a performance with the National Philharmonic Orchestra based in Washington D.C.

So why wait? Call for an audition now!
