Audition for Chorus!
There are three parts to the choir audition:
Prepared Song “America (My Country Tis of Thee)”
Sight-Singing (provided at the audition)
Song of your choice. Any style/genre. Something that showcases your voice (1 minute)
My CURRENT students, we will audition during class the week of April 20th
*** Current FCPS students that do NOT have me as a teacher this school year (for example: Rachel Carson students, Chantilly students not yet in choir, students new to the area but were at an FCPS school previously): use this LINK to sign-up for a time to audition on MONDAY, APRIL 20, 2026
*** Non-FCPS students: EMAIL me directly to set up a time to audition, ASAP
In-person auditions are preferred. If you have a true conflict, please email Mr. Ayars for other options, emayars@fcps.edu
If you don’t want to audition for an advanced class, just sign up for
Concert Choir (Chorus). It is a mixed ensemble that performs VCDA Level 2 and 3 music.
If you are not selected for an advanced class, no worries! You will be put in Concert Choir and can audition again next year!
