Allegretto Auditions Are as Easy as 1-2-3!
Welcome! We are delighted you want to be a part of the MYSO Allegretto Orchestra!
(Auditions are typically held in late summer around July for the fall season & in November for the spring season)
Auditions are Simple!
Just video a short song and the A major scale you have been practicing lately.
Piano accompaniment is not necessary nor is a professional video.
Video recorded with a smartphone is good enough.
Just make sure you're in a quiet room with no distractions
(ie.TV, conversation, or a ringing phone)
Make sure you face the camera to show your bowing.
Record 1-2 minutes of your best playing. That's it!
Our conductors will review each submission and determine ensemble placement.
