Join us

Welcome to Tuxedo Junction’s website. We’re delighted you want to find out more about our group.

Our musical director is the eminently accomplished and talented Simone Bishop, a graduate of WAAPA. Without a doubt our high standard of performances are the result of Simone’s unwavering dedication and commitment to Tuxedo Junction over the past decade and more.

Yes, we are an auditioned SATB choir. If you’re already panicking or feeling discouraged at the mere thought, please don’t despair. Hopefully the following details will put your mind at rest.

During the four-week trial period you’ll sing in your preferred section/vocal range with a view to selecting a song from the repertoire for your audition. So far, so good? Once you’ve decided on a particular song, rehearsal tracks will help cement your practice at home, or wherever. It’s not unusual for both newcomers and seasoned singers to listen to/sing along with recordings while driving (although if you’re stuck in traffic while singing at the top of your voice, you might get some strange looks…ignore them, unless of course it’s a cop on a motorbike, in which case smile sweetly.) The audition takes place immediately after rehearsal. You’ll sing your part along with the three other vocalists, accompanied by Simone on keyboard. No solo, no a cappella, no audience. It’s over in the blink of an eye.

Rehearsals are held on a Thursday evening in Carlisle (near Victoria Park) from 7:00 to 9:15pm.

When you’d like to come along and meet us and find out more about whether our group is what you’re looking for, please first contact Angela on 0419 246 316 or at president@tuxedojunction.org.au.  Angela can answer any questions and will make sure we have some music ready for you.
