| Chorus | Visit a Rehearsal |
| 1. Get to know us by visiting a rehearsal! - Vocal warmups start promptly at 7:00 pm, so prospective new members should arrive around 6:30 pm at our hall located at 2470 Valwood Parkway, Suite 124, in Farmers Branch. You'll see just how much fun a rehearsal can be, and you'll have a chance to meet some of the members, find out about the requirements of membership and get all of your questions answered. 2. Sing us a Song! - When you visit, a member of the music staff will "voice place" you to determine which part is best suited to your voice. See Barbershop 101 for more information on each of the 4 parts. You will be asked to sing a scale, harmonize to a simple tune such as "You are My Sunshine" and sing a few bars of a song of your choice. That's it! 3. Learn a new Song! - After visiting a rehearsal and being voice placed, if you feel you'd like to join us on the risers, we'll give you sheet music and a learning CD for a song in our current repertoire. You will have two weeks to learn all the notes and words. The word "audition" sounds a little scary, but this one is easy. (Imagine American Idol where all the judges are Paula.) If you need any help with the music, there are plenty of people to give you lots of Rich-Tone LUV! 4. Have Fun! - The Rich-Tones work hard to achieve a level of excellence that is unsurpassed, but we have a blast while we do it! As a new member, you'll be assigned a "Big Sister" who helps answer all of your questions and guides you through your first competition with the chorus. So, if you're looking for a place to express and develop your creativity and experience the excitement of performing with an internationally acclaimed women's a cappella chorus, join us on Tuesday nights!
