Prescreening recordings

It is very important that the audio quality of audio and video recordings is excellent. If you are given a choice between submitting audio recordings or video recordings, and your video does not have high audio quality, we prefer that you submit an audio recording.

Live auditions will be held for applicants who pass the prescreening round. Attendance is required.

Your résumé or CV helps give us a full picture of your musical background and experience. It is helpful to include information such as your schools, private teachers, musical experience (solo, chamber, orchestral), music festivals attended, and teaching experience.
