The next auditions will take place on 26, 27, and 28 September 2025.


This summer, we'll be looking  for singers (M/F/X) to strengthen Dekoor. Will you be joining us?


Entry requirements

- You're a student and either study or live around Utrecht.
- You're able to sing in tune and are quick to grasp notes about things like vocal technique or timing.
- You know how to sing in harmony with others.
- You're prepared to put in the time necessary (rehearsing on Tuesday nights, regular performances, theatre concerts in spring, two rehearsal weekends and work in committees).
- You're at least 18 years old in October.
- You 're able to be a part of Dekoor for multiple years.

Plus
(not required, but a nice bonus)
- You're able to read sheet music.
- You're able to improvise.
- You're able to beatbox (vocal percussion).
- You're a student at UU or HU.

Preparation
A Dekoor audition takes 15 minutes max.
- Prepare a pop or jazz song that you can sing for us a cappella (1 verse and chorus is enough).
- You may be asked to sing a contrasting song - for example, if you sang an uptempo, you may be asked to sing a bit of a ballad.
- Optionally, bring the sheet music/chords for your song.

In the audition, we'll test your vocal range, do some exercises with you and listen yo your song. Perhaps our conductor will work on your song with you for a bit, so that we can hear the best of you!

Please note: are you a conservatory student?At the moment, we’ve reached the maximum number of conservatory students in our choir.
