Application procedure

Since there is no audition for the selection of candidates (no national recruiters) in Italy, those wishing to enter the World Your Choir must make a request by submitting a direct application according to the methods of supervised recording. In other words, they will have to present a self-examination by recording the materials required by the notice under the supervision of a tutor.

These in brief the steps to follow:
- identify a supervisor (teacher, director, former WYC choir) who will follow you in your self-examination;
- visit www.worldyouthchoir.org and request the direct application at www.worldyouthchoir.org/request-direct-application;
- in the field in which the motivation for the direct application is requested, choose "Candidate from a country where there is no national audition organized";
- once your request has been accepted, you will receive all the instructions and materials for self-examination, except of course the exercise at first sight, which will be sent to your supervisor's e-mail address

Audition materials requested

a) A range test
b) Sight reading piece
c) Prepared score: One obligatory choral excerpt
