All potential members are required to do a voice check before attending rehearsals.
- Joining DV is not based on musical aptitude or experience, singers of any level are able to become a part of the chorus!
- Singers must be able to match pitch, practice independently, and memorize programs of music. Desert Voices performs from memory. If you have trouble matching pitch, we might encourage you to take voice lessons and try joining at a later date.
- We have grown immensely this past year and we may have a waiting list to join depending on the section. As a mixed chorus (sopranos, altos, tenors, and basses), it is important for us to have balanced sections to achieve the best sound! We also have to consider our rehearsal space and performance venues. We are only accepting tenors, baritones and basses at this time!
Voice Check Dates:
Sundays, January 11th and 18th, 4:30-7:30pm
Rincon Congregational UCC
112 N Craycroft Rd, Tucson AZ 85711
A voice check is not an audition. You don’t need to have anything prepared! Your voice check will happen with the Artistic Director, Assistant Director, and accompanist. You will be asked about your experience and we will have you sing some vocals so we can figure out your range and vocal timbre. We will then ask you to sing back a few pitches after you listen to them on the piano. With this information, we will then assign you a part (soprano 1, alto 2, tenor 1, etc.). This helps us keep track of the balance of the chorus and to help assign you a voice range that is comfortable and fits your voice!
