Thank you for your interest in auditioning for the 2019-20 OSU SPIRIT BAND!
OSUSB is open to ANY current student at Oklahoma State University; you do not have to be a member of the Cowboy Marching Band to audition. All standard band instruments (piccolo, flute, clarinet, alto and tenor saxophone, trumpet, mellophone, trombone, baritone, tuba) will be auditioned along with rhythm instruments including drum set and bass guitar. Please provide the information below, and then select your specific audition time (you will see this link when you finish the information form).
Auditions will be held in the Band Office on the second floor of the Seretean Center. Audition material will consist of the Trilogy (Waving Song, Ride 'Em Cowboys, and OSU Chant) and a full range chromatic scale for woodwinds and brass. Electric bass players should prepare the Tuba parts to the Trilogy (Waving Song, Ride 'Em Cowboys, and OSU Chant). Drumset players should be able to demonstrate different styles on request (rock, funk, Latin, swing, etc.) and create a part to play under a recording of Ride 'Em Cowboys. You can find a recording at this link:
