Rap music is not acceptable for this audition. Students must perform the song with the accompaniment. No a cappella singing is permitted. Students may bring the sheet music as an accompanist will be provided, or students may bring an accompaniment instrumental or karaoke version without vocalists on a CD, MP3 player, flash drive or iPhone. All CDs or devices must be clearly marked and cued to start. Students will be vocalized to obtain range, aural memory and vocal tone. Each applicant must plan to stay for the entire audition time slot. Musical Theatre auditions will be held in the Henrico High School auditorium.
