Students are expected to prepare a short excerpt, etude, or solo on snare drum, mallets, and/or timpani that reflect the level and experience the student has in each area. Students are welcome to use the audition material for the UVM Band, or something they have played in the past. Please e-mail Prof. Toner if you have any questions.
