Each year, over 15,000 students begin the All-State Choir audition process. They participate in 4 progressive auditions, learning new music for each round and also singing at sight a musical example they have never rehearsed. It’s a grueling process, but if they are selected for All-State (500 students from across the state) they are virtually guaranteed university scholarships to study music.

The Mixed Choir students will audition again on November 14th.
