The TMEA honor choir audition process is designed to offer high school singers the opportunity to expand their abilities past the choral classroom.  Students must learn a variety of challenging repertoire, and strive to improve not only their individual vocal abilities but also their capacity for independent practice.  Much of what you get out of the TMEA process is directly related to what you put into it.  To be successful, you must learn the value of hard work and perseverance.  Though it is not required, private voice instruction and/or attendance to a summer all-state choir camp is highly recommended to students who wish to seriously compete in the TMEA competitions.  Resonance members are required to audition for TMEA All-State.  Varsity Chorale MUST learn the first round of music for mock auditions.  Members of Varsity Chorale are highly encouraged to participate in auditions.  All freshmen and sophomore students who have had previous choir experience are highly encouraged to audition for the 9 - 10 Honor Choir.
