Honor Choir Auditions

HONOR CHOIR AUDITION INFORMATION

Honor Choirs provide incredible opportunities for motivated student musicians to gather, rehearse, and perform under the guidance of renowned guest conductors. Students who participate often find it to be an exceptionally rewarding experience. 

The honor choir opportunities for the 2025-2026 school year are:
Oregon Music Education Association All State ("OMEA All State") 9-10th Grade Choir and 11-12th Grade Choir (audition must be complete with Mrs. Lockwood by October 3)
Northwest ACDA Honor Choirs (9-10th grade SATB, 11-12th grade SA or TB, auditions must be complete by September 30).

Auditioning for an honor choir is a great "next step" for those who want to continue their growth as a choral singer. Simply taking the extra time to prepare and record an audition is a great experience in and of itself! If selected, you will have the opportunity to participate with other singers from across the state of Oregon in Eugene, January 16-18, 2026 (OMEA) or from 6 states throughout the NW in Tacoma March 4-7, 2026. Yes, you can audition for both honor choir experiences!

Ms. Lockwood will set up times to record your audition during mid/late September. In the meantime, check out the materials and get a jumpstart on your preparation!

We will also practice the audition materials in class to help everyone feel the most prepared as possible, but you must practice on your own in order to be confident with the audition. Check the resources below for practice tracks and instructions.
