It's that time of year again! The BHS Chamber Choir and Treble Choir are holding auditions for next year's groups! Auditions will take place TUESDAY - THURSDAY: March 26th - 28th. If you are interested in being a part of one of these auditioned choirs, please sign up for an audition using the QR code on the attached flyer!
Auditions are open to all current BHS students, as well as all incoming 8th graders who will be with us next year. There are no prerequisites for the audition, and all that is required is to prepare 30 seconds to a minute of your favorite song!
The Chamber and Treble Choir are Brunswick High School's Honors Choirs, which perform in all of our BHS Chorus Concerts as well as travel for trips and festivals abroad. They have performed throughout the Brunswick community and the state of Maine, as well as in New York City, Washington D.C., Disney World, and even Fenway Park! If you enjoy singing and performing, then this is the place for you! Singers of all levels are encouraged to audition!
If you would like to be a part of the BHS Choirs, but you do not want to have to go through the audition process, simply add Concert Choir to your schedule for next year! All are welcome and no audition is necessary!
