Please prepare a brief standard or a traditional Broadway song – something from the jazz world of the 30s and 40s would be ideal. Those auditioning for Parker should accompany themselves on the piano – blues song is preferable. Those auditioning for Lieutenant may do a monologue or a song. If singing, bring sheet music in the correct key; an accompanist will be provided, but may not transpose.

Please bring a photo and resume, stapled back-to-back.
