Music Audition Information
The audition process contains two sections, a visual and musical section. This page will highlight themusical portion of the audition process. Listed below are the titles of the etudes that you will be
required to perform at the audition. Each etude is taken from a book that is highly regarded amongmusic educators and professional musicians. We encourage you to purchase the entire book from
which the audition pieces are chosen. If you have any questions or problems obtaining a copy ofthese books, please contact a brass staff member. You will find more than a single audition etude in
these books, as these books include many items that will be used throughout your musical life.
Trumpet Audition Selections
1. Characteristic Study No. 1 from Arban's Method......meas. 1-24
2. Etude No. 2 from Theo Charlier's 36 Transcendent Studies.........meas. 1-24
You will not be required to prepare your own audition piece.
Mellophone Audition Selections
1. The mellophone technical etude is: Kopprasch etude (page 39) from “ Selected Melodious
Progressive and Technical Studies for French Horn “ compiled by Pottag and Andraud,Souther Music Company
2. The lyrical etude is: Romance No 14 (page 13) from “ 40 studies for Horn by Kling
International Music Company New York
You will find both the trumpet and mellophone audition music on the final few pages of this
booklet. Please utilize a metronome when you rehearse the material. Use the tempo marked
above each piece as a guideline only. It’s better to hear the music at slower tempo if this allows
for a higher degree of clarity and accuracy.
You should also prepare exercises 1 through 9 in this booklet as you may be asked to play these as part of your audition.
If you have any questions concerning these audition pieces please contact:

Audition Suggestions
Preparation:
! The success of your performance at the audition will be directly related to the level of preparation of the audition materials.
! If possible, meet with a private lesson teacher on a regular basis prior to the audition. ! Record yourself with some type of electronic device. Listen critically to the recording
and work to perfect your performance. ! There is no need to memorize your music at this time. ! Get lots of rest before coming to the audition, as things will be very busy.
Audition:
! Keep in mind that you are auditioning at all times. We want to see your work ethic inthe arc as well as how you sound individually.
! You will have time to warm-up outside of the audition room prior to your audition. !
Before entering the room, please make sure your horn is working properly, oil your
valves, and complete any paperwork prior to entering the room. ! Remember to aim your bell away from the person listening to you.
!
Be sure to ask questions if you are confused about anything you are being asked to play.
! Take a slow deep breath before you play, and good luck!
Tips for Performance Anxiety/Nerves:
! Do not fight your nerves, they are a natural part of the performance process, andfighting it might make it worse.
!
Take several slow, deep breaths to calm yourself.! It is good to perform for friends and family prior to coming to camp as this will help
you perform under pressure.! Visualizing yourself in the audition room may also help calm your mind.
! When nerves are present, mistakes may happen, however, professional musicians do
not react to their mistakes. Do not stop or dwell on your mistakes, and NEVER
apologize for your performance.

Physical/Visual Responsibilities
Posture:
Posture is one of the most important elements of both Marching and Playing. It isimportant to keep your body weight evenly distributed between both feet. The back
should be straight, and the shoulders should be relaxed. The body should never feel tenseas tension has a negative affect on your musical ability. The posture guides used by the
Bluecoats include: Feet should be in a “V” shape with the heels touching and the toes at11 and 1 O’clock; the ankles, hips, shoulders and ears should all be in alignment with one
another.
Marking Time:
When practicing your exercises, it is important to use an audibleMetronome and you should also mark time. We will teach you our mark time style at the
camp, so just use the style you know best until then. Practice several tempos from 60-200 beats per minute while working to minimize any swaying or bouncing in your mark time.
Health/Fitness:
Just a quick word about health and fitness: Spending a summer on the road with theBluecoats can be physically challenging. In order to keep our members safe, it isimperative that all members are physically fit. It is recommended that you begin somesort of cardiovascular regime to ensure that you are capable of performing at a high level
physically.

Musical Concepts
Breathing:
Breathing is one of the most important aspects of successful wind playing. It is the Bluecoats
philosophy to approach breathing as a natural process. During the breathing process, oneshould remain calm and relaxed while keeping the upper body fully erect. All movement in
the upper body should be involuntary and minimal. The muscles in the face and neck shouldstay relaxed and soft and should remain in a natural position during both inhalation and
exhalation. Remember to keep the tongue down in the mouth in its normal rested position.
When breathing one should inhale and exhale evenly while keeping the air steady andconstant with no extraneous noise in the airflow. There should never be a feeling of tension
or discomfort when breathing.
The Bluecoats Brass Staff fully supports the breathing processes created/demonstrated on“The Breathing Gym” DVD by Patrick Sheridan and Sam Pilafian. This material may be
found on the web.
Buzzing:
Buzzing on the mouthpiece is considered a tool to develop good tone quality. We feel that
when done correctly, all students may benefit from mouthpiece buzzing. Use the following
tips to assist in proper mouthpiece buzzing techniques:
• Hold the mouthpiece by the shank of the mouthpiece with two fingers and the thumbof your left hand if a buzz aid is not available.
• Do not press the mouthpiece against the face.• Remain completely relaxed during the buzzing process, make sure the throat stays
relaxed and the tongue stays down in the mouth.• The air should pass between the center of the lips and right down the center of the
shank of the mouthpiece.• Start the pitch exactly in the middle of the pitch without any scooping or bumping of
the pitch.
•
All buzzing should happen inside of the mouthpiece cup.• Practice all musical lines in this booklet on the mouthpiece.
* Remember to use a natural/relaxed embouchure and place the mouthpiece in the center of
the lips.

Bluecoats 2012 Brass Routine
This routine will be the basis of the 2012 brass technique program and is designed both as a daily
warm-up and as a practice regiment for long-term improvement in tone production, airflow,dexterity, articulation and other basic brass skills. It is by no means comprehensive and will be
supplemented as the season progresses based on the challenges presented by the summer programmusic and the development of the brass section.

Long Tones
* Rehearsal Advice - Practice timing your inhalation and exhalation while marking time using a metronome to provide a solid pulse center. The end of each long note should be open-ended. The
airstream should not be stopped with the tongue. Be sure to keep your air columnconsistent and steady throughout each note. Give each long tone direction all the wayto the release.
1. 12 Count pitches
Extended Practice - Vary the dynamics and play on various different pitches. Be sure to always maintain thesimplicity of the sensation achieved with the original exercise.
