Prescreening:

  • A portfolio of scores that best represent the applicant's creative potential 
  • Recordings of the works submitted (preferably not in MIDI format)
  • A recording of the applicant playing an instrument or singing

Final Interview:

 

Composition applicants who pass prescreening will be invited to campus for a live interview/audition with Professors Tower and Tsontakis. They will be asked to bring with them their portfolio of works and will be asked to play a piece on the instrument of their choice. International students, and those for whom travel to the Bard campus presents a hardship, may have a Skype interview.
