Audition Requirements: All campers who are NOT actively enrolled and participating in SEMAYO during the school year are asked to submit an audition video for ensemble placement purposes. The videos allow us to have music ready to go on the first day and to have more time to play music during camp. It is recommended that you have your school music teacher or private teacher help you choose your audition piece and assist with preparing your video.
Please send, share, or email your videos to youth@nbsymphony.org.
