Orchestra Audition Boot Camp
AMP presents our Orchestra Audition Boot Camp to help prepare students for their AMP Youth Orchestras audition. This program is designed for late elementary, middle and high school students desiring to audition successfully for our Junior and Senior Youth Orchestras, but who may need assistance in preparing the required scales and excerpts at a high level.
Training will be provided by AMP faculty members for the following instruments: violin, viola, cello, double bass, flute, clarinet, oboe, bassoon, trumpet, trombone, french horn, tuba, & orchestral percussion.
In 2025, this 3-class boot camp will take place during the weeks of August 2nd to August 19th. Orchestra auditions for new students will take place on August 23, 2025. Each student will receive three, specialized courses on their specific instrument. Students may attend all or part of this program and will learn to master the technique needed to be successful in the ensemble they choose to audition for.
For participating students, it is important to understand that simply attending the four Audition Boot Camp classes will not be enough to complete a successful audition. It is essential that the participating student takes the concepts taught during the classes and practices them at home, individually, on a daily basis. In other words, the classes will provide the “how to play these requirements” and “how to practice these requirements at home” concepts. But the mastery of the audition material will rest mostly with the student’s commitment to daily, individual home practice.
The boot camp is available to prospective and returning AMP students.
