Dear High School Band Director,
 
The Atlantic Wind Symphony is announcing auditions for our annual solo competition.  These auditions are open to any graduating band musician from every high school in Suffolk and Nassau Counties.  The winning student will earn a prize of $200, and a solo performance with the Atlantic Wind Symphony on the Sunday, July 2, 2023, concert beginning at 3pm at the Patchogue Theatre for the Performing Arts.
 
Auditions will be held at Newfield High School, 145 Marshall Drive in Selden, on Tuesday, April 25, 2023 beginning at 4:30pm.  The following requirements must be met by all applicants:
Must be a graduating senior in a high school in Suffolk or Nassau County

Must be a wind, brass, or percussion performer
Must perform a selection with an available BAND accompaniment which is to be provided by the winning applicant

Auditions will be evaluated by a committee of performing musicians from the Atlantic Wind Symphony.  To ensure impartiality, auditioning students will be separated by a curtain from the adjudicating panel, and will perform anonymously, known only by a number, which will be assigned upon arrival at the auditions.

We look forward to your student’s participation in our solo performance competition with the Atlantic Wind Symphony.  Please submit this Google form as soon as possible and pass the information to your performing student(s).    

Please complete the form below per student.  The student will be contacted to confirm the receipt of this application. If you have any questions, please feel free to send an email.  We look forward to hearing from you and/or your student!
