Audition Etudes & Scales

> 2018-19 OkMEA 2nd Round ETUDES (2nd revision)SCALES PROCEDURE
The new scale sets pair a less difficult major scale with a more challenging major and chromatic scale to ensure that each set is of equal difficulty. In addition, students will not know which set of scales to perform until entering the audition room. This will eliminate any advantage experienced by students auditioning in later performance times. The four scale groups are listed below in concert pitch:
Set 1 – A–Db–chromatic
Set 2 – D–Gb–chromatic
Set 3 – G–B–chromatic
Set 4 – C–E–chromatic
