Overture Ensemble – Conductor Messages

Fall 2026- Audition Excerpts!

Audition Excerpts! Please see below for your assigned audition excerpts. Musicians will audition at their retreat this Saturday, October 17th. Each musician will perform their excerpts for their section coach. We will have new seating auditions each quarter. The seat/section placement decision is made to best support the student’s playing abilities so that they can individually thrive, and therefore, Overture Ensemble can reach its greatest potential.
