Voice Checks

Instead of auditions, we do voice checks!

Voice checks take place in the first week of classes during rehearsal time (Mon/Wed 2:50-4:35, MA122). Sign ups for the 10-minute checks will be posted outside MA122 approximately 15 minutes prior to the start of the checks.

Voice checks consist of vocalizing to hear your range, aural exercises (pitch matching), and sometimes a little bit of sight singing. Instead of stressful auditions, voice checks are welcoming and an opportunity for you to meet the conductor Rebecca one-on-one and for her to hear you sing a bit.

All singers who are able to match pitch and are committed to the rehearsal schedule and to learning music are welcome to sing in UCCE. We invite singers of all backgrounds to join, from the new singer to the advanced. UCCE is open to everyone – undergraduate and graduate students, staff and faculty, and community members. We are committed to creating a space of belonging for all!
