Classical Guitar Audition Information

Guitar (BM & MM)

l  Candidates should be prepared to perform three compositions for classical guitar in contrasting styles, preferably from memory.

l  The playing will be assessed on technique, tone and musicality rather than the degree of difficulty of the repertoire chosen.

l  Candidates should also be prepared to play two-octave major and minor scales and sight-read a short excerpt in first or second position. 

Please bring three copies of your music with you to give to your faculty panel.

For more detailed repertoire suggestions please contact Michael Partington at mparting@u.washington.edu.
