All-State Audition Clinic - August 25th

8/14/2018

Any student auditioning for a Florida All-State Ensemble should strongly consider signing up for the Pensacola Symphony Orchestra All-State Clinic on Saturday, August 25th.

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.

Interested students need to register for the event by 11:59 p.m. Tuesday, August 21 and submit a $10 registration fee in order to attend the clinic.
