Welcome! The 2021 UMass Voice Area Open House and Mock Auditions will be held in person this year at UMass Amherst.  The Voice and Choral faculty will be on hand to discuss the process of preparing and performing the collegiate voice audition, and we will offer the opportunity for students to participate in a mock audition. Any student interested in performing the mock audition should indicate that on the registration form. The event is open to high school students and their families, as well as voice teachers.

The event is free; please register so that we know how many people to expect.
