band Auditions

Sign up for the 2026-27 Huron Band Placement Audition
​
Scheduling is first come, first served.

Current Huron HS Band Students:

Band Auditions

Occur each March/April to determine placement in the Huron Band ensembles for the following school year.
Music for these auditions is given to students by Mr. Ash.
New students to Huron may request a personal audition with Mr. Ash.


​Chair Auditions
Occur once / year in the Fall semester.
Due to the number of students in our Band Program, time does not allow for additional auditions.

All students within various sections (
i.e., flutes, clarinets, trumpets) will be given the same music to prepare.
This music is drilled in the classroom; perfection of this music, however, can only be accomplished outside of the classroom.


​ Dates  for chair auditions are given well in advance.
Students sign up for individual times.
Particular dates for each band ensemble are announced in class.
