AUDITION MUSIC

cq-text-component-placeholder

Audition music for the Fall 2025 Wind Symphony auditions may be found in the right sidebar. You may also download the music from our .

Please pay close attention to what is being asked for in the audition music. While music majors are expected to take the full auditions, non-majors have more modest requirements. For non-majors who wish to audition for Wind Symphony, the following modifications may be made to the individual requirements:

  • 1: A one octave chromatic scale (instead of two octaves).
  • 2: Two major or minor scales (instead of four).
  • 3: Perform the excerpt as is, with no changes.
  • 4: Choose only one of the three excerpts (instead of two).

You may of course choose to do the full audition if you are interested in qualifying for section principal, a higher chair placement, or as an audition for a potential ensemble scholarship (if funds are available). For any questions, please contact Dr. Pilato.
