Registration for the Metropolitan Music Community 2025-2026 season is officially open! Please use the links below to register, even if you’ve played with us before. 

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. Members are welcome to participate in multiple MMC ensembles as seating will allow. To seat everyone as equitably as possible please see the points below.

• 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 join more than one ensemble, please apply in preference order on the registration form.  

• 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. 

• All BKWS members need to audition each year.

• Only new BWBB members need to audition. (Returning BWBB members are defined as members who have played a gig with the group, if you have any questions about your eligibility, please email kevinheathwood@mmc.band.)

• For BKWS and GSCB ONLY: Piccolo seats are separate from flute seats. Eb Clarinet seats are separate from Bb clarinet seats. Bass Clarinet seats are separate from Bb/Eb Contra seats.  

• For BKWS ONLY: Eb Clarinet and Piccolo players should also take a respective Bb clarinet/Flute audition and be prepared to play both in the ensemble

• Rehearsal etiquette and adherence to policies in the member handbook are factors in MMC placement for returning MMC members.
