Auditioning

Students interested in the UI Horn Studio are welcome to contact Prof. Agrell
for a meeting and/or a free lesson.

Undergraduate Auditions

Audition Day usually falls on the second Friday in February, but an audition may be arranged for any mutually convenient date. An undergraduate audition consists of playing two solos of contrasting style (e.g. one lyrical, one technical; may be a solo or an etude),
major and chromatic scales and arpeggios, and sight-reading.
Auditionees are advised to choose solo works that match and demonstrate their current musical and technical abilities.

If you plan to attend Audition Day (February 20, 2009), please register here.

Graduate Auditions

Graduate auditions are played before for the UI brass faculty and consist of playing about a half-hour program of solo repertoire selections (may be a single movement) from various eras (required: a first movement from both a Mozart Concerto and a R. Strauss Concerto) plus standard orchestral excerpts (demonstrating both high and low horn abilities). Contact Prof. Agrell for further details.
