WHAT TO PREPARE
Please prepare a verse and chorus of any song that you feel shows off your voice best. This segment should demonstrate your range, musicality, and any other vocal talents you may have. You may sing any genre of music, regardless of whether we normally sing it (but we probably do!), though we encourage you to avoid musical theater.

You will be notified by both phone and email if you are invited to our callbacks.


FAQ

  • Because we are usually comprised of about 16 members, The Nor'easters is a highly competitive group; however, you don't have to be a musical genius or the next American Idol! Everyone should audition because you never know what we're looking for in any particular semester!

  • Yes! We allow and encourage students from colleges and universities in the greater Boston area to audition for us.

  • Absolutely! Most people audition for several groups. If you are invited to callbacks for more than one group, you might be asked to share which (if any) group you have a preference for. You will ultimately only be able to select one group to join!

  • We usually rehearse every Sunday, Monday, and Thursday from 7 - 9 pm, though rehearsals may be added or moved to prepare for performances or accommodate members' schedules. We have a lot of fun during these rehearsals, but we also stay productive and motivated. The commitment level is high, but it doesn't prevent you from doing other activities!
