WHY BE A TG?Do you love to sing a range of songs from old classics to modern popular tunes and enjoy the challenge of a constantly evolving repertoire? Do you want to tour locally and internationally with a fun group of girls? The Tigressions are a tight-knit, fun-loving group who share a love of music. More importantly, the Tigressions are a family. By joining the Tigressions, you will become a part of something larger during your time at Princeton. We cannot wait to meet you at auditions, and we you hope you choose TG! |
yOUR AUDITION
Your Tigressions audition is all about you - it's a chance for you to relax and have fun while sharing your talent with us!
Auditions take place in the Tigressions room located in 059 Bloomberg Hall via appointment. To schedule your audition, make an appointment on WASE with our president Lulu Hao (ahao@princeton.edu).
Here are some exercises that your audition will probably include:
1. Scales and exercises to warm up your voice and explore your range (however we do encourage you to warm up a little beforehand!)
2. Swells, which allow us to hear you at your softest and loudest
3. Finding the top, bottom, and middle notes of various chords
4. Matching each pitch in a series of short phrases
5. A short solo that you've prepared, about the length of a verse and a chorus
6. Most importantly, have fun and sing a song you feel comfortable with!)

You will find out the night of your audition whether or not you have received a callback invitation. Callbacks are longer than initial auditions, and give the group a chance to get to know you better and to hear how you sound with the rest of the group. We'll hang out for a bit, then split into parts and learn a few TG songs before we sing them together.
If you have any questions about the audition process, how to balance acapella with academics, or Tigressions life in general, feel free to email our president, Lulu Hao at ahao@princeton.edu.
We're looking forward to meeting you!
