AMIS Band Festivals 2021
***Note: It is uncertain at this time as to whether SAS will participate in the 2021 AMIS Festival. Please check with your director for recent developments.***
Band students from International Schools all over the world will come together for three days of music making and cultural activities which will culminate with a performance on Saturday afternoon.
Auditions are recorded and sent to a selection panel where the ensemble is chosen via an anonymous audition process. It is recommended that students engage the help of a private teacher to prepare for the audition. Only about 1 out of every 4 students who audition are selected. Competition for a spot is very intense. The audition material needs to be learned to perfection. Correct timing, notes, dynamics and articulations are a must.
