What's The Process

Audition Process

The audition has two parts and is a relaxed chance to listen to and discuss music with prospective tutors

Part one: present two examples of your own creative work and talk them through

Part two: the tutor plays a track and asks you to comment on it from a production perspective

Auditions are free and are held in person or remotely over Zoom

Audition Expectations

Add your creative work to a public shared folder (Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive) as clickable links and test them beforehand

Folders are for your preparation; there is no need to send them in advance

To prepare for the listening discussion, review the course modules and programme specification and note the areas that interest you most
