At BreezeWood Strings, we remember what it feels like to wait outside an audition room, bow in hand, heart racing. That's why every summer, our members give up their own practice time to help fellow young string players prepare for county and regional youth orchestra auditions.

​

Mock Auditions recreate the real audition experience: students perform their full excerpts, scales, and solos in front of a judging panel, so the format itself feels familiar by the time the real audition arrives. Many of the students we work with are auditioning for PVYO or MCYO for the first time, so we also help demystify the process itself, what to expect and how to pace their practice. Sessions are flexible, students can stay for the full block or drop in for just the portion they need.

​

For us, this program is about more than sharpening technique. It's a chance to pay forward the support that got us here, and to help every student walk into their audition a little more confident and prepared.
