Liverpool Anglican Cathedral holding auditions for boy and girl choristers

LIVERPOOL Anglican Cathedral is holding auditions for boy and girl choristers on Saturday.

No previous experience is required but applicants need a good ear and a voice with potential.

The best time to join the choir is around the age of eight, however, the cathedral will take on older children who show talent.

David Poulter, the cathedral’s director of music, says: “As well as learning about music and how to improve your singing skills, being a chorister is so much more.

“New friendships are made, self confidence can increase and there is even the chance to travel abroad and sing in CD recordings and BBC broadcasts.”

Applicants will be asked to sing Away in a Manger or a song of their choice and some scales as well as taking short reading, musical and aptitude assessments. Playing an instrument and reading music are not pre-requisite.
