Faculty Auditions

Only video recordings are accepted. Do not use any form of editing, reverberation, or acoustic altering effects. Videos should be recent, within the last 6 months. Each section of your audition should be its own file. Label your files with your instrument, name, and description. Ex: Clarinet_ JohnSmith _Excerpt_Beethoven6.mov. You may upload files or provide links to shared files (e.g., in your Google drive, Dropbox, on YouTube, etc.). If you provide links, make sure the privacy settings/permissions are set so that our reviewers can access your videos without an account or login.
