Audition Video Guidelines

Euphonium students are involved in one or more of the following: brass ensemble, and/or tuba-euphonium ensemble. During the week students will learn about the power and joy of chamber music where they can be at once both soloists, and ensemble players. Additionally, they will learn advanced concepts around breathing, tone production, range development, articulation, and other fundamentals of excellent musicianship in master classes and chamber rehearsals.

Skills required are basic euphonium technique, including a good characteristic tone, at least a two-octave range, and the ability to play most major scales and a two-octave chromatic scale starting on a note of the student’s choice. Minimal skill should be consistent with material in Rubank’s Intermediate Method for Trombone or Baritone Horn.

Time: Do not exceed 5 minutes
