Ensemble Auditions

General Info

All Music Majors are required to audition for the appropriate ensemble each semester.

Non-Music Majors are invited to audition for the ensembles listed below.

Jazz Lab Band Auditions

Each new and returning jazz student should sign-up for an audition time located on the Jazz Studies Board. Auditions will be held in room 205 of the Music Building. Mr. Schneller asks that you bring a prepared transcription, jazz-etude, or any prepared piece to the audition (therefore we will have no posted audition music). Additionally, you will be asked to sight-read. Students wishing to be considered for jazz-chair placement will be asked to play 1-2 choruses of an improvised solo with a Jamey Aebersold play-a-long. The preliminary drumset audition will be conducted by Dr. Lane in RM 224 (the sign-up sheet will be posted on RM 224). This portion consists of sight-reading and a demonstration of various styles. Final placement in ensembles will be determined by reading/rehearsing charts with the Jazz Ensemble and/or Jazz Lab Band, conducted by Mr. Schneller during the first week of classes.

For more information email Mr. Aric Schneller at schneller@shsu.edu
