Welcome to the Audition information page for the Civic Orchestra of Minneapolis. 
 

Thank you for your interest in the orchestra.  Our mission is to foster an enriching experience for musicians and audiences of the Twin Cities by presenting music at the highest level of any non-professional ensemble. Performances for our regular season take place from October to May, and we have a summer concert in July. 

 

Rehearsals usually take place on Tuesday nights at 6:45 pm at Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd,  4801 France Avenue, Minneapolis, MN 55410.  

​

The Civic Orchestra of Minneapolis currently has openings for ​Section violin/viola/cello/bass

​

Section string auditions can be arranged anytime throughout the season. Although not required, we typically will first invite you to join us for a rehearsal so you can try us out as you consider becoming a member. Following this rehearsal, you will be asked to audition.

​

Please prepare a 3 octave D Major scale and a 5-minute piece of your choice. The audition will also include sight reading.
