Placement Video

In order to maximize the amount of time available to students during camp, SYSO Summer Music will be requiring online placement video submissions. This audition is not to determine acceptance to the camps, but rather a placement audition for the orchestras and ensembles.

You will need to take a video (not exceeding 3 minutes in length) of your child performing:

Strings, winds, brass:
1) a musical selection of your choice
2) a major and minor scale of your choice

Percussion:
1) a music selection on one of the following: Snare Drum, Timpani, or Mallets (glockenspiel, xylophone, vibraphone, OR Marimba)
2) one major or minor scale of your choice on the mallet instrument of your choice
* We understand beginning percussionists have limited access to the instruments listed above. If you have concerns about submitting a placement video, please contact summermusic@syso.org

 

Placement Audition videos can be submitted once you have registered, but no later than June 15, 2020. Follow these instructions for submitting your video.
