Everyone who are in the current UNT Orchestral Studies database should have RECEIVED AN EMAIL WITH YOUR AUDITION PLACEMENT OR INFORMATION REGARDING EITHER SYMPHONY OR CONCERT ORCHESTRA.

Upon receipt, make sure that:

(1) You check your UNT emails more thoroughly. Send an email to Orchestral Studies Personnel Manager, Ella Castro (Ella.Castro@unt.edu) if you have not received an email with your timeslots by noon of August 18, 2025. Auditioning students MUST keep both ensemble times open until orchestral assignments are made. Ensemble assignments are made without reference to pre-existing commitments outside of UNT. Contact David Itkin, Director of Orchestral Studies, at David.Itkin@unt.edu for any further questions.

(2) Your UNT email is updated in the personnel database. If you have received a recent email regarding updating your UNT email in the database, send an email ASAP to Ella Castro containing your full name and your UNT email address. IMPORTANT: All orchestra-related communications will only be sent to your UNT email once the classes start (August 18, 2025). Please make sure you update it before then.

(3) You enroll in the right orchestra class. Once you determine your placements, enroll in the right section ASAP.
