Pace Band Audition Results - 2017-2018

Any necessary schedule changes will be made during the first week of school.  Please be patient!

The Pensacola Symphony Orchestra in partnership with Pensacola State College is hosting an All-State Audition Clinic for middle and high school music students. The clinic on August 26 will prepare students for the upcoming 2017-18 All-State Band and Orchestra auditions. 

The clinic will provide students with an opportunity to work on their repertoire with professional musicians from the Pensacola Symphony Orchestra and faculty from Pensacola State College. During the course of the morning, students will view a mock audition, review scale preparation and sight-reading preparation, as well as participate in a master class with an emphasis on their specific exercise selections. Students should bring their instruments along with their All-State music. Percussionists only need their sticks, mallets, and music.

Registration and additional details can be found at the link below:

All performances will be held in the Center for Fine and Performing Arts (Building 82).  Call time for each ensemble is 30 minutes BEFORE their concert start time.  All instrument cases can be stored behind the stage in the hallway.

It is recommended that parents/students turn right onto University Parkway (from Nine Mile Road), and then left at the second light.  Follow this road and you will see the CFPA on the right side (just after the tennis courts).
