Placement auditions are only required for students applying for the "Premier" level. Students will otherwise be placed according to our past experiences or grade levels. However, students who feel they should be placed above the JR Bass Band level may also play an audition to be considered for advanced placement. Please note again: placement auditions are only required for the Premier Band level. If a student has been in either the JR or SR Brass Band, and is happy with this placement, there is no required placement audition.

Placement audition repertoire will include two major scales of your choice, and an except of a solo or etude of your choice. Placement auditions will be evaluated heavily on sight reading skills.

Placement auditions will take place on Sunday by appointment.

Students will be notified of appointment schedule via email or phone. Placement results will be posted upon arrival to Gramercy Brass Band Camp on Monday.
