What to Expect At Your First Rehearsal

Picture
When you walk in the door of a Vista Hills Chorus rehearsal, you will be greeted by our Team Coordinator, Kaidee, and our Membership Chair, Debra.  You'll be introduced to anyone you meet, but don't worry - we don't test you on name retention!  One of those people will be the person responsible for voice placing you; they'll walk you back to the office, have a quick chat, and do an easy voice assessment.  At the end, they'll give you a voice part, tell you where to look and who to follow within your part, and walk you out to share this information with our amazing director, Melanie.  

​Once you're back with the group, you'll be able to participate in the evening's rehearsal.  This includes physical and vocal warm-ups, some vocal exercises working on pitch and range, and the musical repertoire we're scheduled to work on.  

Remember: Everyone comes into this with a different level of experience and background, and we love our theatre majors, center-stagers, harmony voices, and angelic top notes equally!  

Rehearsal DOs: 
  • Bring water!  
  • Bring a pencil! 
  • Relax!  We love new people.  
Rehearsal DON'Ts: 
  • Please don't wear heavy perfumes or scents.  
  • Please don't chat on the risers.  Questions are great, but try to direct them to your Section Leader.
