Guidelines for submitting your audition recording:

Please note: all audition recordings must be submitted electronically via e-mail attachment.

It is necessary for us to listen to an audition recording from new prospective students to insure a minimum standard among seminar attendees. Choose music that you are comfortable performing and that demonstrates your current level of ability. Choose music from the standard solo classical harp repertoire (i.e., no pop or jazz). You do not need to include orchestral excerpts on your audition recording. There is no length requirement for your audition recording.

You must send an audio recording; no video recordings please. Record in a quiet setting free from any distracting noise that would prevent us from fully appreciating your performance. You should use the best equipment possible, but it is not necessary to submit a professionally produced recording; home recording equipment is adequate if you feel it gives a good representation of your performance.

Audition recordings may be waived by special permission, such as demonstration of advanced-level musical achievements. It is also possible to schedule a live audition with a faculty instructor. Contact us to inquire. College students majoring in harp are not required to submit audition recordings. Returning students are not required to send an audition recording unless they are applying for a scholarship.
