How To Set Up an Audition

1. Families are encouraged to review the other sections of this website to find out more about the GBYO Association.
2. We are adding audition times during early September. Please call 410-617-1524 to schedule an audition on this date. You will be told what forms need to be filled out at that time.
3. When the GBYOA receives your application, you will be assigned an audition time based on your top three choices. We will contact you to confirm this time (if none of your times are available, we will contact you to re-schedule).
4. Please download and review all the applicable following forms. String players who are not sure which orchestra they should audition for should download the requirements for both.
