Undergraduate Audition Requirements: Organ

Repertoire requirements for undergraduate auditions on organ: 

• A significant work by Bach 
• A composition from the Romantic or Contemporary era
  

In some cases, a student may be accepted as an organ major or principal who has previously studied only the piano. See piano requirements for appropriate audition repertoire. Music minors, students with organ as secondary instrument, or non-music majors may audition with organ repertoire of their choice or be able to demonstrate the ability to play intermediate keyboard repertoire (e.g. Bach: Inventions). For additional information about the organ program at Ohio University, please contact Dr. Paul Barte.
