1 FALL 2016 AUDITION INFORMATION Thank you for your interest in the St. Cloud State University Wind Ensemble! The Wind Ensemble is the Music Department s upper level band, and is open to music majors and others on campus seeking to continue playing their instruments in a concert band setting. Both new and returning members should plan to audition to confirm your placement and for initial chair seating. Audition music is provided to assist in your preparation as well as provide some uniformity for evaluation. This is a chance for Dr. Bushman to meet and visit with you prior to the start of rehearsals and get a sense of your abilities. It is understood that many people are away from their instruments over the summer and selections have been made with this in mind as well as help you prepare for a successful semester. Auditions will take place Sunday, Monday and Wednesday, August 21, in PAC 113. If you need assistance obtaining a school instrument, please visit Carroll Fisher in PAC 101. You may sign up for a time at the web link fall. The schedule will also be posted on the band board outside PAC 113. PLEASE COMMUNICATE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT AUDITIONS TO DR. BUSHMAN AT CSBUSHMAN@STCLOUDSTATE.EDU or text All players should prepare: 1. Audition music for your instrument (provided) 2. Major scales (student choice, 2, see scale sheet) 3. Chromatic scale (minimum 2 octaves, also on scale sheet) 4. Sight reading (at the director s discretion-may be used if callbacks needed) Audition preparation tips: Begin preparing as soon as possible. Practice in short sessions more frequently rather than long sessions right before the audition. Include a proper warm-up each time you practice. Wind players, this includes long tones and breathing exercises. Playing long tone warm-ups on your scales is a great way to accomplish two tasks at once. The scale sheets provided are a guide. You may play a different rhythm or articulation. Scales do not need to be memorized. Pay attention to the key and time signature on each selection. Choose tempi that are both achievable and fit the style of the piece. Always perform with a steady tempo. You will be more successful with a steady tempo that is slower than marked than with a sloppy performance at a given tempo. Look up reference recordings (University library catalog, Youtube, Spotify) where possible to study the context of the piece, style and other performance factors (articulation, phrasing, etc.). Direct any questions about the selections to Dr. Bushman. Good luck and have a great audition. I am looking forward to having you in the band this year!
