Auditions for New SBYO Students

The SBYO is still accepting new student auditions for Spring 2010.  Any middle or high school student who plays a standard orchestral instrument is invited to audition.  Please prepare a solo under four minutes in length (or an excerpt from a larger work).  Sight reading will also be included on the audition.

To schedule an audition, please e-mail us at sbyomusic@gmail.com.  In your e-mail, tell us what you play, how old you are, and your preferred audition time on a Wednesday evening before our normal rehearsal (5:30 or 5:45 p.m. generally works best).  Please specify the exact date.

Students who join the SBYO must register for the Community Education Program at El Camino College.  The yearly membership fee is $300.  The fee is $150 for students who join midyear.  Families with multiple children in the orchestra will receive a discount.

Auditions take place on the El Camino College campus (Marsee Auditorium).  Please be sure to pay for parking to avoid a ticket.

Please bring completed forms to your audition.  We will have extra forms at the audition as well.
