four memorized selections. Of those four selections, one must be in English and one must be in a foreign language. Operatic literature is not expected; do not choose the most advanced voice literature for your audition. Aural skills may also be assessed at Ann Arbor auditions; auditionees will hear several short phrases played at the keyboard and be asked to sing them. An accompanist will be provided when auditioning in Ann Arbor if requested in advance.

Prepare four selections in differing styles including a work in English, French, German, and Italian. Of the four selections, only one operatic or one oratorio aria will be permitted. One selection must have been written after 1940.
Additionally, prepare eight measures of secco recitative (i.e., simple, with minimal accompaniment) from an 18th century opera or oratorio in one of the four languages above.
Memorization of all works, including the aria, is required.
You are encouraged to provide your own accompanist, though a School of Music accompanist will be provided in Ann Arbor if requested in advance.
