VOICELAB AUDITIONS – We can’t wait to hear you!
VoiceLab is a co-ed a cappella group made up of graduate students and young professionals that sings a mix of pop, rock, and r&b songs. Most of our members sang in competitive a cappella groups in college, so we have a high level of musicality, but we also have a lot of fun 🙂 We rehearse on Tuesdays in Harvard square, arrange all our own songs, and perform twice a year.
We are not currently holding auditions, but please email us at harvard.voicelab@gmail.com if you would like to be informed of when auditions next open.
FAQ:
Q: Is it hard to get in?
A: Because we are usually comprised of about 16-18 people, VoiceLab is a highly competitive group; however, that is not to say that you have to be a musical genius or be the next American Idol to join our ranks! Everyone should audition, because you never know what we’re looking for in any particular semester! Each semester we typically accept between 2-4 new members, space permitting. Most of our members sang in competitive undergraduate a cappella groups, but we’ve also had several members who are new to the a cappella genre. We love hearing auditionees with a wide variety of musical experience so don’t be shy and show us what you’ve got!
Q: When do you rehearse?
A: We rehearse every Tuesday night from 7-9:30 PM. We also hold occasional additional rehearsals as needed.
Q: What are rehearsals like?
A: We have a lot of fun during rehearsals, but we also aim to stay productive and motivated. With only 2.5 hours a week to learn several new songs a semester, we cover a lot of material at a pretty quick pace, but we keep the environment casual and make time to catch up. After all, we do this for fun!
Q: What level of commitment do you expect from members?
A: We’re all graduate students or young professionals with other priorities and we know that things come up, but we ask members to aim to miss no more than 4 rehearsals a semester.
