High school band students planning to prepare their ILMEA District or All-State band auditions are invited to this free event to learn from Illinois State University applied faculty in the School of Music. Students will receive guidance and instruction to help them prepare their recorded ILMEA band auditions. This clinic is scheduled well in advance of the submission deadline for the recorded auditions.
Students will receive instruction in the following areas:
- technical and musical suggestions on the required etudes
- expert advice on practicing the senior level scale sheet
- technical and practical tips for recording your audition
Saxophone students interested in working on the ILMEA jazz auditions (in addition to the standard district audition) will be offered an optional session on the jazz audition requirements.
Students and families who attend the event will receive complimentary tickets to the School of Music Collage Concert.
