Participation in our regular season program is via an audition/placement process (Note: Cascade Overture Strings does not require an audition process). 

Auditions will be held on September 2, 5, and 8, 2025.   Students interested in auditioning are encouraged to begin preparing early. 

Below is a list of the audition requirements for each orchestra instrument. 

For your audition you should be prepared to play the following:

• One major and one melodic scale (2-3 octaves) in any key you choose
• A 3-5 minutes solo of your choice (no accompanist) 
• Sight reading (material will be provided for you at the audition)

Note:  All members of CYSO’ regular season program must be enrolled and participating in their school music program. 

 CYSO'S SCHOOL MUSIC PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENT POLICY: 

 All active CYSO members must be enrolled and participating in their school music program on their respective CYSO instrument (e.g. a string player in CYSO must be in their school orchestra or string program; a wind/brass player in CYSO must be in their school band). NOTE: If your school does not have an instrumental music program (orchestra or band) OR does not have a program at your student’s grade level, this policy requirement will not apply. 
This requirement is for active participation in CYSO during the 2025-2026 concert season.
