Auditions for the 2010-2011 Season are now being scheduled!
YpM is beginning an exciting season of singing, performing, and traveling. In addition to performing in the Boston area, YpM will go on tour and visit Montreal at the end of the season. Would you like to be a part of it? Then audition for the chorus!
Schedule an audition
Auditions are by appointment with our Artistic Director, Robert Barney, and take approximately 15 minutes. Formal musical training is not a prerequisite for the younger singers, but some prior musical experience is necessary for admittance to the high school division. The various divisions of the chorus often perform together. All auditions and most rehearsals take place at the First Unitarian Society in Newton, located at 1326 Washington St., West Newton (directions).
Auditions begin on Tuesday, September 7, 2010 and are available on other days during the month of September.
If you would like to audition or simply learn more about YpM, please contact Allison
