Frequently Asked Questions

Is this an audition?
No, this is not an audition. You will not be required to perform a prepared piece and there are no examinations of musical ability. The Artistic Director will play a piece on the piano and you will be asked to sing along. The Artistic Director will be mainly listening to see if you can match pitch. It's pretty laid back, so don't be frightened!

Do I have to be able to read music?
No, though its great if you can! Once you join the chorale you will be asked to learn some basic music reading skills.

How often do you practice?
We practice once a week, on Monday nights, between 7:00 and 9:30 pm. Members are also required to attend sectional rehearsals. On average, there are about four (4) sectionals a semester.

Is there an attendance policy?
Yes there is. Members are allowed to miss two (2) rehearsals a semester. Once you miss a third rehearsal you are required to meet with either the Artistic Director or your Section Leader before you can continue to sing with us.

We practice at Westminster Presbyterian Church, 1502 West 13th Street, Wilmington, DE 19806
