*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 7:00 pm until 9:00 pm 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.
