2007-2008 District 7 PMEA Band/Orchestra Audition Repertoire
Students should prepare all movements unless noted otherwise.
Students do not need to learn cadenzas.

Recent repertoire changes (contact the Repertoire Chair or Audition Chair with questions):
November 19, 2007
 F Horn Scales: A new scale sheet has been posted which reflects the clarification of November 9.
November 9, 2007
 F Horn Scales: The scale sheet lists two different octaves fir the Cb/B Major scale. The range written for the Cb scale is correct for both (i.e. the B major scale example is written an octave too high; the lower two octaves should be played).

Alto Saxophone solo: The Alto Saxophone solo should be played in the audition with the written articulations, or lack thereof. Students should be prepared to play what is written on the page.
September 26, 2007
 Violin: For the purposes of this audition, the “First Movement” of the Accolay Concerto #1 in a minor will start at the beginning and conclude at the key change to A Major, at the bottom of page 5.
September 7, 2007
 Clarification on notation for the Trumpet solo Concone Lyrical Studies #29:

1) The notation in the Concone studies deals with layers of phrasing and articulation in an effort to provide the most lyrical and musically appropriate interpretation possible.

Therefore: when one layer of slur/marking is present, it should be assumed that this applies directly to articulation. When two layers are present (i.e. mm 16 and 17, where the triplets are slurred under a larger slur line) the layer directly in contact with the notes dictates articulation and the larger line indicates phrasing.

2) The staccato markings at the ends of phrases indicate a “lift”

3) The “a piacere” section qualifies as a cadenza and is therefore exempt from the audition.
September 5, 2007

In the Alto Saxophone solo: Movement III (Larghetto) – the rhythm in measure 2 of the solo part is incorrect. The rhythm should be the same as the rhythm in measure 1; this rhythm is written correctly in the piano accompaniment. The correct notation also appears below:
