Cincinnati Boychoir Auditions

Presented by Cincinnati Boychoir at Aronoff Center for the Arts, Cincinnati OH

Sep 10 2018
Cincinnati Boychoir Auditions

Join one of America’s premier professional boychoirs today! With programs for boys in Kindergarten through High School, a life-changing opportunity awaits!

“Cincinnati Boychoir is not just any children’s choir” – Cincinnati Enquirer.

We couldn’t agree more! Since 1965, The Cincinnati Boychoir has been providing a music education for boys from throughout Cincinnati, and to date has graduated some 3,500 alumni from the choir program.

In our opinion, two things make this organization truly unique: first, the single-gender environment allows the Boychoir staff to focus on the unique needs of boys, which are often overlooked in today’s teaching environments.

Second, we believe that the act of putting together top-notch performances is a teaching tool in and of itself. The self-discipline, attention to detail, and drive needed to put on high-level concerts each year teach boys to take their work seriously and to believe in what they are doing. The Cincinnati Boychoir’s elite touring ensemble, the Ambassadors, has performed on many of the nation’s great stages, including The Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., and Cincinnati’s own Music Hall. These performances are life-changing for the boys that perform them.

Every great experience begins with one courageous step. To sing in a choir, that step is the audition. At the Boychoir, this is a friendly, informative, and educational encounter for boys and their parents, and we hope that if you know a boy who loves music, you will help him take this life-changing step.

Or, grab your (musical) passport. Skip the audition. Bring your friends. Travel the world through music.

We are proud to announce two new programs that allow younger singers to join the Cincinnati Boychoir without the pressure of an audition or a mainstage concert. Each program is filled with singing, games, drumming, and themes of travel and storytelling. Tell your friends and sign up today for one session – or all three! All classes held in the Aronoff Center’s Rehearsal Hall (enter through the Fifth Third Theater entrance).

ADMISSION INFO

Every great experience begins with one courageous step. To sing in a choir, that step is the audition. At the Boychoir, this is a friendly, informative, and educational encounter for boys and their parents, and we hope that if you know a boy who loves music, you will help him take this life-changing step.

Boys try out at one of our open auditions in September, January, or May. (Register for an audition here.) Auditions are open to any boy entering the second through twelfth grade.

During the audition, new boys will sing with one of our current choirs so they can experience what our rehearsals are like. We will also hear each boy sing separately in small groups. The audition is short, usually about five minutes, and in it, we ask each boy to listen to a few notes and sing them and then to sing a familiar song such as Happy Birthday.

If you are interested in scheduling an audition time, please see one of the directors after a concert or call our office. We always appreciate recommendations from the boy’s school music teacher. Or, register your boy for one of our open auditions.
