The All South Jersey Band holds its annual audition every year in late January. The audition consists of a designated solo piece and a set of memorized scales. Please see the website SJBODA.org for more detailed requirements.

Because the audition is so rigorous, NCS has developed monthly benchmarks to help students prepare.

By the end of October the student must play the entire audition for Mr. Cook. (This may be done by appointment after school.)

By the end of November the student must play four scales from memory and must play the solo at all indicated tempi.

By the end of December the student must play 8 scales from memory and the solo with all indicated dynamics and articulation.

By the end of January the student must play all scales from memory and the solo up to tempo with all dynamic and articulation.

Students who do not meet all benchmarks will not be allowed to audition.
