<p>You’re pretty safe in assuming it is all about the audition and no one cares about the choral work but that doesn’t mean you don’t want to describe it as accurately as possible. You could describe it as “audition only ensemble” or “member of highly selective madrigal group” - something along those lines. If the head of the choral arts department is on your son’s audition panel and is hoping to find a great tenor or baritone to take the place of someone leaving his competitive, audition-only ensemble, it might matter. There was no choral work at my D’s school so I don’t have any experience with listing it. For years, she was a member of a local childrens chorus whose name was well enough known that people on the panels on the East Coast often mentioned it to her or asked her about it so people really did look at the application and the resumes.</p>
