Band Auditions

Any student wishing to play percussion is required to have a minimum of one year piano experience.
Choir Auditions
At TAFA, we want to give students of all abilities confidence in using their voice. We believe that EVERYONE can sing and especially love to give students the tools to overcome the typical voice cracks, sudden pitch drop, air-spewing tone and insecurities that are so common in pre-teen & teenage voices. We have different levels to train students of varying ages & abilities and are sure to challenge the amazing songbird who would prefer to create their own part as well. Please check the TAFA Catalogue for Class Descriptions. Please click on the links below to learn more.
