Auditions

Admission to the Orchestra is by audition only.

Call 931-7539 to book your time!  We are now taking mid-season auditions.

The audition will consist of:
    • two solo pieces of your choice, one slow and melodic and one at a quicker tempo. An accompanist is not required.
    • a 3 octave scale of your choice for string players, a 2 octave scale for winds and brass.
    • sight-reading.
    • You must bring a copy of your music even if you have the work memorized.

The auditioning committee will be listening for:

    • accurate pitch, rhythm and tempo
    • secure intonation
    • good tone quality
    • a wide range of dynamics

Auditions are are held in May and September but may also occur at other times of the year if space permits. To book an audition, or for more information, interested musicians and their parents are invited to phone Tori at (705) 931-7539 or e-mail info@thekyo.org
