Austin Contemporary A Cappella
Carpe Sono’s First Ever Open Rehearsal for Tenors & Basses
We are currently looking for two tenors or a tenor and a baritone to round out our group. We’re going to have two open rehearsals where you are able to come and sing with us, get to know more about the group, learn the ensemble pieces that you’ll perform during auditions, and see if this is something you’d like to be apart of. If you enjoy the open rehearsal, come back for the auditions on September 24th.
Here is what you need to know about open rehearsals and auditions:

Auditions
Date: Thursday, September 24th
Time: 8:00pm
Location: Orpheus Academy: 3918 Far W Blvd, Austin, TX 78731
What to expect for auditions:
- Welcome
- Practicing a few arrangements as a full ensemble
- Solo (a minute and a half or less)
- Range test (test your highs and lows)
- Ensemble Audition (sing an arrangement with the rest of our group)
There are three parts to the audition:
- Solo: prepare a solo (about a minute and a half -verse and chorus should be fine) that best represents you (known song preferable)
- Range test – we’re going to test your highs and lows to see where you would fit part wise
- Ensemble: learn an excerpt of two of our arrangements and sing with the group to see how we all sound together.
