Some general information

At Aalborg SO we try ensuring that all contestants have the opportunity to show their very best on the audition days:

• we try to follow a time schedule, so you can be prepared when you are expected to play for every round. 

• the program for the rounds might be cut depending on the number of contestants on the day, but we will always announce what we expect to hear prior to every round, and we will not cut anybody off

• all contestants will be guaranteed an individual practice room where you can warm up and will be called in for the audition by our stagehands who can help you with further questions on the audition day.

• all rounds will take place in our wonderful concert hall. For the 1. and 2. round the jury will be behind a screen, so you can play out into the (almost) empty hall

• the piano will be tuned in A=442

• on audition days our artist lounge is reserved as a hang out place for all contestants.  There is free coffee, beverages fruit and some snacks . There are also a few places one can find food in direct proximity to the hall
