All undergraduate and graduate students are welcome to audition for the bands. Members of the faculty and staff and JPL are also encouraged to audition. Members of last year's ensemble need not audition unless they want to do so.
Auditions are very low key. Just bring your instrument, and if have the time to prepare something, that would also be good.
If you haven't played all summer, or even for a year or two, don't worry about it. Enthusiasm is more important than ability!
