Alright guys, it's time once again to prepare your most ear-shattering high notes, get ready to rock out, and give us all you've got because Ithacappella, Ithaca College's only all-male a cappella ensemble, is ready and waiting for you to blow us away!
Auditions will be held at Presser Hall in the Whalen Center for Music on Saturday, August 30th. Come see us in the CAMPUS CENTER LOBBY, between 9am and 3pm on the Wednesday-Friday leading up to the auditions to sign up for a time slot. Time slots go quickly so get them while they are still... hot?
So this is how the audition will work: You will need to prepare two solos of contrasting styles (fast/slow, happy/sad, hot/cold, up/down, Coke/Pepsi, right/left... you get the jist). Please try and select a verse and a chorus, (about one minute) of each song. The audition process is pretty laid back, so just have some fun with it!
In addition to your two solo pieces, please feel free to bring anything else you feel could wow us! Can you rap? Beatbox? We wanna hear it! Do you arrange? Bring us something you've arranged! Anything that you think will impress us!
You will be auditioning for President Chris Frost, Vice President Paul Tine, Conductor Dave Allen, Assistant Conductor Mark Farnum, and Administrative Assistant Ryan Kennedy. Feel free to seek any of us out if you have any questions on the process, the group, or just want to chat it up. Most of us could use all the friends we can get...
Callbacks will be held later that evening and our first rehearsal is the next day, so you will want to be sure to block off that whole weekend for some fun-filled funerific... funness!
We could not be more excited to kick off this year and look forward to seeing some fresh faces! For more information, head on over to our website www.Ithacappella.com or shoot an email to contact@ithacappella.com.
