Honors Choir Information
The 2025 Senior Honor Choir will be November 20-22, 2025 at the 2025 VMEA Conference in Norfolk. All 12th grade students enrolled in a VMEA member’s school choral ensemble are eligible to audition. Opus Events will be used to host online auditions. This year for auditions, we will use a song from the Honor Choir repertoire called “Sehnsucht”, a German Partsong by Johannes Brahms. Students will learn their voice part from a portion of the song and then record it with other parts and the accompaniment on Opus and complete one sight-reading example. Sheet music and accompaniment tracks are available for download below. Please click on the button to the left to access the Senior Honor Choir Audition Information, which contains all relevant information about the auditions.
