- The name of the person auditioning

In-person signup will begin at 6:00 PM on March 27th and at 12:30 PM on March 28th.
Auditions will be held in first-response order: those who called in advance will be auditioned first; everyone else will be taken on a first-come, first-served basis.
Musicians will be evaluated primarily on sight-reading ability, but all are welcome to play an excerpt of one’s own choice (not to exceed 60 seconds) to warm up and get comfortable. The passage may be from a solo, etude, or piece of band music.
Please bring along a brief resume.
