Description

The Audition Isn’t Just the Song—so why do so many singers only prepare the music?

In this episode of The Voice Science Podcast, we break down the non-singing elements that make or break your audition: your entrance, demeanor, professionalism, preparation, and how you handle the unexpected.

You’ll learn:

  • Why most casting decisions happen before you sing
  • What to do when the accompanist plays the wrong tempo
  • How to prepare your binder, tech, and track
  • Why your slate, exit, and even your shoes matter
  • The real difference between talent and professionalism

Whether it’s your first or your fiftieth audition, this is your guide to walking in prepared—and walking out proud.
