Audition Information
Auditions can be recorded or performed in-person. Priority for admission and scholarships is given to students who audition by February 27, 2010. Students may choose to audition during the LHSOM's Audition Day on Saturday, February 6, 2010.
In-Person Auditions
Auditions can be scheduled by contacting Dr. Sielert and making an appointment. Auditions are normally heard unaccompanied.
Recorded Auditions
Because in-person auditions are not always possible, high-quality CD or cassette recordings are also accepted. Please mark audition materials clearly with your name and instrument. All recordings will become property of the Lionel Hampton School of Music and will not be returned.
Recommended Repertoire
Please have the following prepared for an audition:
- An etude that is representative of the student's level of technique, range and expression.
- One or more solo works (or movements) of your choice. Consult your State Solo List for appropriate selections.
- Chromatic scale, full range
- All major scales, full range if possible
