NorQuest is looking for someone to help make this year’s convocation ceremonies amazing by singing “O Canada”, our national anthem.

Current NorQuest students or students graduating at Convocation can apply.
Applicants must submit one audition video singing the National Anthem a cappella (voice only, no instruments) without voice enhancements or background music. Please complete the form below and submit it along with a link to a YouTube video to convocation@norquest.ca.

Studio-quality recordings are not necessary. You may apply as a soloist, duo, or group (four people maximum). For a duo or group, one form per member is required, but only one video submission is needed. Submit applications no later than April 26, 2024.

A panel of judges will review all the submissions, and finalists may be asked to submit further video auditions. All performers will be emailed about their status no later than April 26, 2024.
