Woden Valley Youth Choir
AUDITIONS & INDIGENOUS SCHOLARSHIPS
Woden Valley Youth Choir is an exciting and dynamic choir for young people aged 8 to 21. We are proud to offer so many positive benefits to our members: the value of learning to sing with confidence, the value of positive self-esteem, and the value of developing performance skills, which will hold them in good stead for the rest of their lives. WVYC is a not-for-profit community choir with a strong emphasis on Kodaly Music Education. We don’t just sing – we become musicians.
Woden Valley Youth Choir has:
- a lower primary choir
- an upper primary choir
- a secondary/tertiary aged choir for boys and girls with treble voices
- a secondary/tertiary aged choir for boys with changing or changed voices
- an upper primary a cappella vocal ensemble
- a secondary/tertiary a cappella vocal ensemble
Rehearsals are held on Tuesday evenings at Charles Weston School in Coombs which is easily accessible from all parts of Canberra via the Tuggeranong Parkway.
AUDITIONS
Auditions for Woden Valley Youth Choir for 2019 will be held on two dates
- Saturday 12 January 2019
- Saturday 23 February 2019 (following our Open Day on 12 February)
We would particularly like to audition young people in January who will be in high school or above, so that successful applicants can come to our camp for our two secondary/tertiary choirs on the weekend before school starts. However, all interested applicants may audition in January and we will also happily accept new secondary/tertiary applicants in February.
