Where Do I Get Audition Music?
The audition requirements for the All State Music Program are available online at www.mmea-maryland.org. Students must follow the audition guidelines exactly or be disqualified. Actual copies of the music must be purchased from your local music store or ordered through appropriate distributors. You must not perform from photocopies – that is illegal! Sometimes, audition materials may be borrowed from your ensemble director.
