An Important Note on Audition Requirements
The requirements are not meant to discourage auditions but to provide a basis of comparison for a variety of levels of play, which do not always run concurrently with age or grade level in school. If you are invited to become a member of the Treasure Coast Youth Symphony after audition, your audition performance may be used for orchestra seating purposes. Auditions are open to all intermediate and advanced players including middle school, high school, and college grade levels.
