Worship Team Auditions
This year, we are instituting a video audition process to help us more accurately and fairly audition delegates for the Worship Team Program. The audition requires a video of two performances:
Delegates will prepare and record themselves performing a pre-defined piece (Glorious Day) that will help adjudicators measure their ability level on their instrument.
Delegates will submit a video of themselves performing an excerpt on their instrument (or voice) of any piece they would like.
*** Please note that there are limited slots available for the four worship team major classes. If by chance you are not placed in one of these four teams, unfortunately you will not be able to participate in the worship team program this year, but you may still come to TMI by signing up for another major, including the newly minted Worship Arts Skills Major which will spend time in hands-on training on various worship arts skills (e.g. sound and media training, worship leadership, worship team instrument skills, worship planning, etc). Please see the course description for more information.
Delegates will still need to complete an in-person choral audition upon arrival to TMI (audition packet below).
Instructions
When making your worship team audition video, you will need two devices: one for video recording your audition, and another for playing the audition video guide (link below).
If you find it difficult to hear the video guide over your playing (particularly for drummers), you may listen to the guide on headphones while you play.
You may perform your prepared piece in the same video as the first part of your audition (Glorious Day), or you may upload a separate recording with just the prepared piece.

Once again, all worship team delegates (except for those in a leadership class) must complete an in-person choral audition upon arrival to TMI. Please use this choral audition packet to prepare.
