Popular Performance Voice Audition Requirements

Popular Performance - Voice

Perform three to five cover songs that highlight your vocal skill level. You may accompany yourself or use recorded tracks. If you use recorded tracks, adjust the volume so that your performance is clearly discernible.

Video Introduction: Tell us about who you are as an artist. Record a short (2-5 minutes) video introduction, including information about your artistic journey, such as the kinds of classes or lessons you have taken, your artistic accomplishments, any awards you have won, groups you have participated in, artistic experiences that have been particularly meaningful, and anything else you would like for us to know about you as an artist.
