All-State Opportunities

There are many opportunities for students to audition for All-State groups. All-State ensembles are a wonderful opportunity for advanced students to challenge their musical skills and perform with the top student-musicians in the state. Students interested in trying out for All-State ensembles must be ready to dedicate a large amount of time to practicing for their audition. 

In 6th grade and junior high, students can try out for Middle School All-State Band and All-State Jazz Band. These events take place in March and February, respectively. To audition for All-State Band, students must record a chromatic scale, a major scale, a minor scale, and two etudes. These recordings are due in the beginning of December. For All-State Jazz Band, students need to record the same scales as All-State Band and two jazz etudes. These recordings are due in the beginning of January.

High schoolers can try out for All-State Orchestra, All-State Band, and All-State Jazz Band. Unlike middle school auditions, high school all-state auditions are judged live, not recorded. All-State Orchestra auditions are in the fall and perform a concert the first weekend in November in conjunction with All-State Chorus. All-State Band auditions are in late January and perform in March. All-State Jazz Band takes place in late April.
