Before submitting the application, you will be directed to upload your audition recordings.
AUDITION RECORDINGS ARE MANDATORY. All individual participants must submit an audition recording. This is to aid in better placement for chamber groups, as well as help determine your scholarship award.
In order to upload your audition recordings, please be sure that you follow the submission guidelines below.

Note: Pre-formed groups are not required to submit a recording. However, recordings of your ensemble are welcome.

For .mp3 files:

• Please make sure that your First and Last name are in the file name. Examples: JohnDoeAudition1.mp3 or DoeJaneRMBIAudtion1.mp3
• Please include a number or piece title if you are submitting multiple recordings. Examples: DoeJaneWagner.mp3, DoeJaneStrauss.mp3, JohnDoeRMBI1.mp3, JohnDoeRMBI2.mp3

For YouTube Links:

• Please prepare a Word Document that includes your First & Last name in the file name. Example: JaneDoeRMBIAudition.doc
• In the body of the Word Document, please list your First & Last name, instrument, excerpt name and link to YouTube.  
• Make sure your YouTube link is not listed as Private, as we won’t be able to see the video. If you don’t want the video to be Public, please upload it as Unlisted so we can still have access to your audition video.
