*RCS Auditions*

Auditions for RCS are held throughout the season. Currently, we schedule auditions on a Tuesday, following a regular rehearsal. RCS rehearsals are held on Tuesdays, from 7:30 until 9pm at Christ Episcopal Church (on the corner of 5th and Court Streets), Reading, PA. You are welcome to sit in on one of our rehearsals to decide if you think you would like to audition. Please call the RCS office at (610)898-1939 or e-mail us at information@readingchoral.org to schedule your visit and/or audition appointment.  
 
Auditions will consist of vocalizing and sight reading exercises and will last no more than ten minutes. A prepared solo is not necessary.  
Some music reading ability is required, but you need not read at an expert level.

Anyone auditioning by mid-January will be able to sing with us in our April concert – see concert schedule.
