The Guild Auditions consist of a program of memorized music played alone for a judge, who then gives detailed feedback on a "report card". It is a good opportunity for students to review and show what they have accomplished this year and to hear from a person other than their teacher about what they are doing well, and ways they can improve. Students also receive a pin and award certificate.
Our local audition times are Thursday afternoon April 28th, which gives us better time to plan ahead. Fees for entry depend on the number of pieces in the program, but should range between about $30 and $50. Programs can include songs that students already know and/or have memorized, as well as pieces we will learn for the auditions, and "musicianship phases"--demonstrations of skills such as playing sets of scales, chord, or exercises.
If you are interested in participating in the Guild Auditions this year please contact Mr. Michael before February 26th (michael@elkgrovemusiclessons.com) or return this letter. We will work together to complete the next steps to register students and choose a program to begin working on! Please let me know if you have any other questions. I look forward to giving our students a chance to learn and grow through this experience.
