All recordings will be submitted by the Director on the Director's Application.  Please follow these specifications:

• One track per student (meaning one MP3 File per student)
• MP3 file format only.
• Each Director will Upload 1 MP3 file per student to the Director’s Application.
• Each audition recording (meaning each MP3 File) must contain the following material recorded in the listed order (for Jazz Choir Auditions, please see audition order on the main page and record in that order):
  • Name of Student
  • Name of School
  • Name of Instrument (For Jazz Choir Auditions, please say "Jazz Choir, alto" - or whatever voice part)
  • Scales
  • Solo
  • Announcement – “End of Audition”
• Omit accompaniments and long rests over one measure.
• Play scales and passages at specified tempos.
• Listen to the completed recording to make sure that everything is recorded in order and review the directions above.
• Cheating will not be tolerated.
• Recordings are not to be electronically enhanced. Enhanced recordings will be eliminated from consideration for participation in the honor band.
• It IS ACCEPTABLE to record parts of your audition and mesh them together into one file.  For example, a student can do many takes of one scale, then use that scale for their final audition submission.  Then they can do several takes of the excerpt and use the best one for the audition.  This can easily be done with many softwares, such as Reaper, Audacity, or Garage Band.  This is the only type of tampering that is tolerated on our auditions.
