Audition for the Orchestra

Sign up for auditions for the 2019-2020 season here!

Our relaxed auditions include 5 to 7 minutes of playing in front of our music director and a general manager. Please prepare two contrasting selections from your instrument's standard repertoire. There is no sight-reading or scales.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at bachsoc [at] hcs.harvard.edu or visit us at the Freshmen Activities Fair. You can also check out our FAQ page for more information.
