Austin Girls' Choir Placement Auditions

Presented by Austin Girls' Choir at Ascension Lutheran Church

Are you looking for a fun challenge, music-loving friends, and exciting extracurricular opportunities? Ready to commit to a year of teamwork, learning and performing? Come join us! Fall entry placement auditions for girls age 8-18 are being scheduled weekends plus Tuesday and Thursday evenings through October 2.  Parents may call our office at 512-453-0884 for an audition appointment; times are set upon receipt of audition fee at P.O. Box 4026, Austin, TX 78765. Our choristers come from all over Austin and surrounding communities. Our fun, challenging repertoire encompasses a broad range of genres and languages, and is primarily in 3- and 4-part harmony.  We are excited to rebuild after weathering the pandemic, and welcome singers of all levels to our ensembles!

Junior Choir (age 8-14) meets Tuesday and Thursday evenings in the Parish Life Center of Ascension Lutheran Church, 6420 Hart Lane. Beginners meet 6:15-7:30 p.m., intermediates 6:15-8:15 with small-group skills and theory instruction for the first half hour.  Advanced singers rehearse 6:45-8:15; some practice with both the Junior and Senior groups. The Senior Ensemble, for advanced singers age 13-18 who read music well, meets Sunday afternoons 2-3:30 p.m. in the Parish Life Center of Ascension Lutheran Church, 6420 Hart Lane. The choir counts on all members to be regular and reliable in both rehearsal attendance and performance participation.

Dates & Times

2022/09/02 - 2022/10/02

Additional time info:

The choir will begin work on holiday music on Sept. 13, and performance season begins in mid-November, so we prefer to finish adding new choristers by the end of September. This allows us to have the majority of our holiday repertoire learned with minimal stress by early November.

We have use of the hall where auditions are held during the specified times and days.  Sometimes arrangements can be made for additional times, but we cannot guarantee such availabilities on short notice. Your understanding is appreciated.
