Thank you for your interest in the YVHS Select Choir! Select Choir WILL NOT be an ensemble for the 2025-2026 school year. However, we are planning to re-institute the ensemble for 2026-2027. Please check back for updates to this page. Here is general information regarding how best to prepare for your audition in the future.
Please remember the following
- You are auditioning for the TOP vocal ensemble at Yucca Valley High School; please come prepared!
- Grades and behavior WILL be looked at and taken into account when determining who is selected for the ensemble.
- This ensemble performs challenging music; a solid work ethic is REQUIRED.
- There will be required individual/sectional practice outside of school hours. Please do not underestimate the TIME COMMITMENT that being a member of this ensemble requires.
- This ensemble requires a full-year commitment. Please only audition if you are serious about being a member.
- There is a required uniform for this ensemble (tuxedo for the gentlemen, a formal dress for the ladies). The uniform costs approximately $100 per person; fundraisers will be available to offset the cost. There will also be other costs (weekend festival, etc.) Students are STRONGLY ENCOURAGED to participate in fundraisers to help the entire ensemble.
- This ensemble will participate in festivals and performances on- and off-campus, during and outside of the school day. ALL REHEARSALS AND PERFORMANCES ARE REQUIRED. NO EXCEPTIONS!
Auditions are scheduled for the following days and times ONLY:
- TBA
- You will need to provide your own transportation to and from your audition.
- Unfortunately, due to limited space, the auditions are NOT open to the public; only students auditioning will be allowed in the actual audition.
If you or your parents have any questions or would like to speak to me further about the Select Choir, please send me an email. I look forward to meeting and working with all of you.
Sincerely,
TBA, Director of Music
Yucca Valley High School
