The MIT Symphony Orchestra is holding open auditions for Spring 2026. Auditions are open to all with preference given to MIT and Wellesley students. MIT and Wellesley students may take MITSO for 6 units of credit, but one need not take MITSO for credit to fully participate.
Auditions will consist of the following:
- Perform a short solo work/excerpt of your choosing, no longer than three minutes. This may be memorized or with music in front of you.
- You will be asked to perform various scales (major, harmonic/melodic/natural minor, chromatic).
- Sightreading
The first MITSO rehearsal of the season is scheduled for Tuesday February 3, 7:30pm, Kresge Auditorium.
