Spring 2020 Orchestra placement auditions will take place during the first week of school during the following days: Monday, January 13 through Friday, January 17, 2020.
Starting in the Spring 2020 semester, failure to take a placement audition at the beginning of the semester will result in a lowered overall grade, as it demonstrates a lack of commitment to the quality of your orchestral studies at MSM. Faculty and staff involved in the process of making orchestral rosters need the information about your performance in orchestral placement auditions to make appropriate and equitable assignments.
Students are expected to make travel plans in accordance with the academic calendar so that they are present when school is in session. While we understand that many students must travel great distances to come to MSM, travel plans when returning from breaks that prevent a student from completing their placement audition will not be considered a valid reason to miss an audition.
