Discover more about Regionals and All State.

Regionals is a prestigious choral event where high school singers audition for spots in a choir composed of the top performers from their region. Organized by the Arizona Choral Educators, this event provides an opportunity for students to perform and receive feedback from adjudicators. Exceptional performers may advance to the All State level, representing their schools in a highly competitive and rewarding environment.

All State offers a platform for the most talented singers to collaborate and perform at a state-wide event, further enhancing their choral experience.

AUDITIONS

Auditions for Regionals typically occur in the fall, with the event itself held in early winter. All State auditions follow shortly after, with the All State event taking place in early spring. The audition process consists of two parts: a vocal solo portion and a sight-reading portion, allowing students to showcase their singing abilities and sight-reading skills.

We encourage all students to prepare diligently and audition for these remarkable opportunities. Your hard work and dedication can lead to incredible experiences and achievements in the world of choral music.

To support this, Mountain View provides vocal coaching at no cost to students who do not currently have a voice teacher. This benefit, provided by the Mountain View Choir Parent Organization, is to help students prepare for their Regional and All State auditions.
