Welcome back!

We hope your time away from LVMC has been great.

Members who are unable to maintain performance status but do not wish to relinquish performance privileges may take a Leave of Absence (LOA). LOA’s suspend performance responsibilities, but not other membership privileges and requirements. Members who take a LOA must notify the Member-At-Large in writing. Members returning from an LOA of two consecutive concerts or more must be re-evaluated by the

Artistic Director. 

Members wishing to leave the Chorus are asked to notify the Member-At-Large who will then inform the Artistic Director and the Secretary. Any member who is leaving the Chorus must settle any outstanding account balances. Failure to follow any of these procedures will jeopardize future membership in the organization. An exit interview is encouraged of each departing member to be conducted by a member of the Board of Directors.

All former members should submit the form below.

Former member submittals are due on the Friday before that cycle's Open Audition date. 

Our team will contact you via email the week of auditions with more information. If you are required to re-audition, you'll remember the below details but take a look to familiarize yourself with what to expect and what's changed.

Open auditions are held three times per year to kick off each mainstage concert cycle for Spring, Summer, & Holiday. 

The audition is painless! No need to prepare anything unless you want to, we all know the tune "Happy Birthday"! Our artistic director, Ryan Duff, will spend a few moments with you individually to hear your voice and determine what vocal section would be best for you.

We are more than just a chorus.  We are a family.  We are a membership, mission-driven, community that creates safe spaces through musical experiences which inspire all of us to be stronger together. We create the change we wish to see in the world by being inclusive and welcoming to all regardless of race, age, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, or other identities.
