Please note that registrations to audition for ensembles in 2022 are now open. An email has been sent to all current students, and it is their responsibility to submit their registration to audition. Once they have done so, they will receive an email of confirmation.
Registrations may still be made online (click here to register).
Students should complete this form for each instrument on which they would like to audition, i.e.:
- If they play clarinet and saxophone, they will need to fill in the form at the link twice – once for clarinet and once for saxophone.
- If they play trumpet and want to audition for both a concert band and a big band, they fill in the form once and tick both band options.
Audio-visual audition submissions are due by Friday 5 November 2021 for the following ensembles:
- Big Bands (must also accept membership in Wind Ensemble/Concert Band)
- Wind Ensemble/Concert Band
- Chamber Strings/String Ensemble
Information regarding small ensembles will be communicated to students later in Term 4.
Band students who register to audition will receive excerpts specific to instruments via email during Week 2 of Term 4. Students will also be required to play between one and two minutes of a piece they are currently working on with their instrumental teacher. This piece does not need to be accompanied and can be in any style they choose. All auditions for 2022 will be submitted by students as audio visual recordings. These recordings should be submitted via email to music@concordia.sa.edu.au, by providing access to a OneDrive link, or by using Dropbox. If students have trouble submitting their recording, they should visit the Music Office with their recording on a USB so that it can be transferred, prior to the close of submissions.
String students who register to audition should prepare one page of a piece of music they are currently working on which demonstrates their true ability. All auditions for 2022 will be submitted by students as audio visual recordings. These recordings should be submitted via email to music@concordia.sa.edu.au, by providing access to a OneDrive link, or by using Dropbox. If students have trouble submitting their recording, they should visit the Music Office with their recording on a USB so that it can be transferred, prior to the close of submissions.
