Penn Jazz auditions will be held on Sunday, September 12th. There will be an initial meeting in room 179 of the Platt Performing Arts House (on Spruce between 38th and 37th) at 5pm to sign up and pass out music.  Individual auditions will be scheduled at the meeting and will begin at 6pm in room 177.

The audition will consist of:

-A sight reading portion
-An optional (but encouraged) improvisation section accompanied either by an Aebersold tape or current PJ members.
-Something you've prepared for the audition.  This can be anything you know well.
