Audition for the Northwest Boychoir. I was in this group from 1976-1980 and I can say it was the single most important music training I ever had. NWBC is also a good stepping stone to Seattle Opera and recording soundtracks. (NWBC sings on one of my favorite game scores: Age of Mythology by Ensemble Studios.)
It was 1979 or 1980 I won the first “Touring Choirboy of the Year” award. A lot of years have gone by since then but the pride of winning that has not dimmed.
It’s Recruitment Time at the Northwest Boychoir!
And because you’re a friend of the Choir, we want you to know so you can pass the word along to any young boys you think might be interested.
Open auditions will be held Saturday, May 31 for boys 6 to 9 years old (in grades 1 through 4) for enrollment in September. If you’re receiving this, it’s because you’re a member or alum, you’ve attended our concerts, or maybe you’ve supported our education program with a donation. In any event, we’re convinced that those people who know us are the best ones to help us recruit new members.
Please forward this email to anyone you think might be interested. Our auditions are casual and fun. We do require an appointment to audition. But we don’t require any previous music training. If you’re interested in learning more about the Northwest Boychoir, check out our website. You’ll find information about our program and our auditions.
