Students interested in majoring in Piano Performance at CSU Stanislaus should prepare to audition during the year prior to admission with two works in contrasting styles from memory. A suggested minimum difficulty level for audition repertoire would include selections from Bach Inventions, Mozart Sonatas, or Chopin Nocturnes.
Contact the Music Recruitment Coordinator at musicrecruitment@csustan.edu or 209-667-3844 for information about audition dates or to schedule a visitation or free sample lesson. Students who perform for entrance auditions are automatically considered for a talent-based scholarship, which is a four-year award for entering freshmen, and a two- to three-year award for transfer students.
Prospective students are also encouraged to contact Benjamin Boren, Keyboard Coordinator for further information.
