Of our four ensembles, BKWS and BWBB require auditions to gain entry. Anyone interested in joining GSCB or KCCB does not have to audition. Please note that returning BWBB members do not need to audition. BKWS and BWBB auditions will in no way affect your application to GSCB or KCCB.

You must apply by June 15th. Ensemble invitations will be sent out in early July along with a confirmation form. You must complete your confirmation form by August 3rd. Those who miss the July and August deadlines will be waitlisted and seated as vacancies allow.

If you wish to play multiple instruments, please fill out a registration form for each instrument.
BKWS and BWBB will have summer auditions for next season.
