Note: Audition Sign ups and audition materials will be posted on this page on August 1, 2022
Fall 2022 Audition Dates: August 22-27, 2022
Audition Process:
- All instrumental music majors are required to participate in a large ensemble (Mulb) during fall and spring semesters.
- All students participating in ensembles will audition in round one with the instrumental faculty. The results of round one are sent to Wind Studies in two groups (A and B) for round two auditions.
- Students will be assigned an audition slot either for round 2 group A or group B based on the results from round one. This audition will be with the Wind Studies and Orchestral Conductors, and instrumental faculty.
- After round two, the conductors and instrumental faculty will coordinate placements into ensembles. The placements will be posted on the Wind Studies website.
Before you audition you must complete the following requirements:
- Submit an audition information form (to be posted after Spring 2022 semester)
- Enroll in the ensemble holding course:

- Once you are assigned to an ensemble Wind Studies will move you to your assigned group.
