Our program is a classical program, and our assessments are based on this repertoire only. Please see the Audition Repertoire section for more details.
Yes, you may use this repertoire. “Classical” in this context means anything except popular styles, or musical theatre, not specifically the Classical Era of music history.
No. If you are performing a piece that requires accompaniment, we will only accept a live pianist as an accompanist. Please see the information in the section on Piano Accompaniment for more information.
Yes please. One copy of the music for the panel is appreciated.
If you are performing an in-person audition and will be using our accompanist then you must provide one clean copy of the music for them, and another copy to the audition panel.
All copies will be returned to you at the end of the audition.
The main difference has to do with the lessons. Bachelor of Music students are required to take lessons for a minimum of the first 3 years of their degree, and are expected to do a certain amount of performing. Bachelor of Arts students may elect to take lessons if they wish, but are not required to do so. B.A. students taking lessons are not expected to perform outside of the requirements for their weekly lessons and year-end jury.
