AUDITION INFO

All campers are welcome at Southern Maine String Camp; no audition is required to attend!

We do ask campers to submit a short video audition before camp begins, but this is only used as a seating audition to place you in the right orchestra. This way, the first day of camp is smooth and stress-free, without the pressure of an in-person audition.

Admittance to camp is not based on your audition.

Scroll down for the audition upload form. Please do not email us your link.

Please follow the instructions to submit your orchestra placement audition. You must be registered for camp before you submit your audition video.

Due: Friday, July 31, 2026
