CJMEA Region Band Auditions
CJMEA Region Band auditions are on December 10th at JP Stevens HS. Assigned time ranges will be shared with students by the band directors shortly before the audition day. Auditioning students must complete a mock audition with either director prior to the audition itself. This is our way of making sure students have some coaching beforehand on the materials, and to make sure nobody shows up to the audition unprepared. Good luck to the 33 BRHS Band students going out for region band!!
