Singing MembershipsAuditions AGMC has developed a reputation for holding "the most comfortable" of auditions. (Don't be intimidated by our artistic director or his resume -- or by the music leaders who sit in on the audition. They all want you to do well!) Auditions and rehearsals are held at First Metropolitan Community Church, 1379 Tullie Road, Suite 200, Atlanta, GA 30329. Rehearsal entry is at the front of the building facing McDonald's. The audition entry is at the back of the building facing Children's Hospital offices. Please check the top right corner of this page for details on audition dates and times. Audition Requirements Those auditioning should prepare no more than one minute of a song of any musical style, either with or without accompaniment. You will be asked to participate in a vocal warm-up as well as light tonal memory and music learning exercises. Rehearsals and Other Information Rehearsals are held most Thursday evenings from 7:30-10:00 pm at the First Metropolitan Community Church on North Druid Hills Road at I-85. Additional rehearsals are usually scheduled during the week preceding each concert. The AGMC performs three concerts each season, and may make additional appearances throughout the year. Membership dues for the full year are required, but scholarships are available based on need. Please contact the AGMC at 404-320-1030 or information@agmchorus.org for more information. |
