What Texas's TMEA audition actually looks like

Audition tiers: District → Region → Area → All-State
Audition window: October–February
Repertoire shape: rotating two-year etude + scale cycle published each summer

Same rubric the panel uses. The Audition Simulator scores tone / intonation / rhythm / tempo / musicality on the same scale Texas adjudicators do, calibrated against real audition feedback.
Bar-specific notes. Not "work on intonation" but "F-sharp pivot on m. 9 is reliable; one drift on the descending C-major scale m. 23, middle finger pulled flat under the upper neighbor." A real teacher's specificity, available between lessons.
Audition Prep Mode (Kingdom Pass). Set your audition date: the Oracle plan rebalances your daily 25-min drill schedule against the timeline. Within 21 days of audition: zero new material, only review.
Three-panelist Simulator. Practice the room, not just the take. Three named AI panelists deliberate, you hear them argue, you get a verdict. Closest thing to the real chair.

Unofficial guides. Official materials and errata: tmea.org/orchestra/audition-material/etudes/. Region cuts post Aug 1 at noon CT, area cuts Sept 1.
