BERGEN COUNTY MIDDLE SCHOOL CHOIR INFORMATION

BERGEN COUNTY MIDDLE SCHOOL CHOIR INFORMATION

The Bergen County Middle School Choir auditions are fast approaching! Sponsored by the Music Educators of Bergen County, Inc. (MEBCI), this audition-only group (Soprano, Alto, Baritone mixed choir) is a wonderful opportunity for strong 7th and 8th grade singers who are interested in a more rigorous and challenging choir experience, while performing with other talented students from near 30 sponsoring schools in Bergen County. The inexperienced or struggling singer may find the choir audition difficult to master.

Please be sure to take into consideration the time commitment when deciding whether or not a student should audition - two evening rehearsals from 4:30pm-8:00pm,  one daytime rehearsal from 9:30am-3:30pm, one Saturday rehearsal from 12:30pm to 3:30pm, and a Sunday performance beginning at 3:00pm. Due to the limited, rigorous rehearsal schedule, NO ABSENCES for any reason are allowed.

PLEASE NOTE: Student audition forms and audition fees ($10.00 checks made payable to CRESSKILL BOARD OF EDUCATION are due for submission by Tuesday, October 1, 2024, 3:00 pm. 

Auditions will be held on Tuesday, October 15, 2024 (audition registration time TBD - anywhere between 4:30pm-7:00pm) at Eric S. Smith Middle School, 2 Monroe St., Ramsey, NJ 07446.  With sometimes up to 300 students auditioning, students could be involved in the audition process (warmups, waiting in line, and auditioning) anywhere between 15 minutes to 2-1/2 hours.

PLEASE NOTE:  In order for a student to be eligible to audition and/or perform in the Bergen County Middle School Choir, the student MUST be a part of their school's choir AND in good standing with said choir.

Parents are not to contact MEBCI personnel - please direct any questions, complaints, or concerns to your child's middle school choir instructor.

Please consider having your child take part!
