Getting Started

Interested in singing great classical and concert music? With an orchestra? Join us! You’ll fit right in and have a great time. We are comprised of singers of all ages, from all walks of life, and at all levels of musical experience. We’re here because we enjoy singing and because we value the rewards that come from performing great works of art. Auditions for the DCC are not “pressure-cooker” events. We simply want to hear your voice, see what vocal range is comfortable for you and check out your basic instincts for melody and harmony. Confident music reading skills and/or prior choral experience is a plus, but not a hard and fast requirement – especially if you have a “good ear” for music.
