Auditions

Audition Information

All students will audition for ensemble and orchestra placement when they arrive at the festival on Saturday, June 14, 2025. All of the materials listed for your instrument must be prepared in advance!

Please watch Preparing for an Audition with your student. Some of this is geared toward string players specifically, but there is valuable information here for all musicians attending camp.

Audition music can be printed by clicking the links below for your instrument and level. Wind and brass instrument participation in orchestra will be determined by their auditions on June 14.

All piano-only students should be aware that they may be asked to help out with a large ensemble (band or orchestra) in order to fill out their week at the Festival. Most often, the final Saturday and Sunday student activities are for large groups only.

Which music should I print?

Junior designation is for students who have just completed 7th or 8th grade.

Senior designation is for students who have just completed 9-12th grade.

Print your audition music by clicking the file linked below for your instrument and grade level.
