Recorded auditions

After you submit your online application and pay the fees, you will receive your personalized applicant checklist and access to upload all of your supporting documents to your applicant portal, including your recorded audition, by December 15

• Recorded auditions are not permitted for applicants to any graduate program in conducting, and will only be permitted on a case-by-case basis for applicants to the DMUS performance program.
• Applicants choosing a recorded audition do NOT need to submit the screening material and should only upload their full recorded audition.
• Review the required repertoire for your recorded audition.
• Your recorded audition should be uploaded to the Multimedia Portfolio option on your checklist. Be sure to click ‘submit’ after you have finished uploading your files to your Multimedia Portfolio. You cannot edit this after it is submitted.

Other guidelines for your recorded audition:

• Your audition should include video as well as audio.
• Your recording must be less than 6 months old.
• Performances should include accompaniment where appropriate.
• Recordings of recent live performances are acceptable.
• You may upload separate videos for each piece, or submit the entire audition in one video. Please note that for recorded auditions for classical guitar, applicants must submit one 40-minute video. The video must be un-edited and in one take (no edits between pieces or at any time).
