GENERAL INFORMATION • Your audition will be unaccompanied; • Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your audition time; • Your audition will last approximately 7 to 10 minutes; • Due to time constraints, you may be asked to stop playing before you reach the end of your own

choice work; • The panel may not want to hear all your excerpts; • Any audition requirements not prepared will result in an incomplete assessment of the applicant’s

suitability for the ensemble; and • MYO strongly encourages applicants to apply on auxiliary wind instruments where possible, as

this may affect the outcome of the audition. MYO may be able to assist with access to auxiliary instruments for the audition and for use in the program, should an applicant be successful in their audition and is subsequently rostered on to play the instrument.
