Orchestral excerpts
At all NJO auditions (and first round EUYO auditions when combined with NJO), musicians will be asked to play a selection from the NJO orchestral excerpts listed below.
Candidates ONLY applying for EUYO (both 1st and 2nd rounds) need to prepare EUYO excerpts.
Although candidates may be asked to play only a selection of the orchestral excerpts, all of them should be prepared. Read more about the auditions on our Audition information page and the underlying pages.
Please note:
- Woodwind players should prepare all orchestra excerpts for their main instrument; preparation of orchestra excerpts for auxiliary instruments is not mandatory, but strongly advised. Read all about auditioning for auxiliary instruments in How to prepare.
- The list with excerpts may be subject to change, so please make sure you prepare the right excerpts. If you have any questions, please contact NJO Orchestra Manager Twan Dubbers twan njon.nl
