[Perform-Talk] Calling In-person Conventioners: Altos and Tenors Needed for Veterans Ceremony Vocal Group

[Cierra Theriot]

Wish I could have always wanted to be in the group doing that, but I think my voice isn’t big enough for that lol. I wish I could do the national anthem, but they probably have somebody already doing that.

Our contribution is a small vocal group that sings a medley of patriotic songs in the background as the veterans introduce themselves and are recognized by the audience. Those who have attended the last several in-person conventions will be familiar with this feature.

These singers will need to be available for one rehearsal early in the convention (time decided on by the availability of the group members) and a final rehearsal/sound check at 8 AM on July 6, the morning of the first general session. It is helpful to be familiar with harmonies of patriotic repertoire, though in the past the harmonies have often come together naturally during our rehearsal, so comfortability singing with a group is a bigger plus. If you are interested in filling one of these roles, please send your contact information and a sample of your singing to Julie Orozco at kaybaycar at gmail.com. Since we only have a few spots to fill, we can't guarantee that everyone who is interested will get in; however, we're always willing to save auditions for future groups.
