Notes on Translation
The electronic translation service on the York Region District School Board's website is hosted by Google Translate. The quality of the translation will vary in some of the languages offered by Google. Google Translate is a free service and currently offers translation in over 50 languages, although an impressive number, this does not capture all languages or dialects. The basic translation’s goal is to capture the general intention of the original English material.
The York Region District School Board does not guarantee the quality, accuracy or completeness of any translated information. Before you act on translated information, the Board encourages you to confirm any facts that are important to you and affect any decisions you may make.
The York Region District School Board is committed to parent, family and community engagement, and it is our hope that by providing this tool on our website that we are making our information more accessible to families whose first language is not English and thereby enabling better engagement in public education.

AUDITION APPOINTMENT INFORMATION
VOCALS
All students will:
- participate in a 60 minute group workshop including:
- a warm-up, sight-reading, and a diagnostic theory assessment
- be given a hearing assessment
- be interviewed
- be required to perform the following:
Perform three solo pieces. Two pieces chosen from the list below (ONE in a musical theatre style and ONE classical - each selection is approximately 16 bars long) and ONE song of your own choice in any genre. A piano accompanist will be provided.
Audition Excerpts:
Musical Theatre
Classical
Suggestions:
- Be careful when trying to learn songs using "YouTube"; there are many different versions of these pieces.
- Look over the music carefully and ensure that you are performing the assigned pieces as written.
- Practice along with the rehearsal tracks ahead of time so that you are familiar with the accompaniment.
- Bring sheet music for the song of your own choice if you would like the accompanist to play for you; for your Own Choice Song only, it is acceptable to use an accompaniment/karaoke track on a CD or device (ex: iPhone), sing a cappella, or self-accompany on any instrument.
- You may choose a third piece from the audition selections list as your "own choice" solo if you prefer.
