Band Camp Audition Materials

Audition Materials

The WTAMU Band Camp audition pieces are available by selecting the appropriate grade and instrument from the list below. We have provided audition materials for middle school students (grade 8 and below) and high school students (grades 9-12.)

The audition pieces were written to challenge the most advanced middle school and high school students. Careful attention and detail should be given to tempo, meter and rhythm. You may also be asked to sight-read a short selection.

Percussionists MUST audition on both the snare drum and keyboard percussion parts.
