Future Students
The Augusta University Department of Music hosts numerous audition days during the Spring semester, both on campus and at area high schools. These dates are posted below and appear on the Department of Music website. If you are planning on visiting the campus, please let me know ahead of time. I will make arrangements to attend the audition, and I will also provide any interested students with a free 30 minute lesson. You may also schedule to visit the school and audition for me any day during the week. If given enough prior warning, I will be more than happy to arrange for prospective students to meet our current horn students, sit in on Freshman Theory or Ear Training, and attend one of our ensemble rehearsals, either the Wind Ensemble or Orchestra. If you have any questions or wish to schedule a visit, please contact me at the following email: [email protected].
