Doublers please read from OMEA:
We will not be drawing times in 3 seperate blocks like last year. AuditionAdmin will randomly assign the draw order. We will run each room until it is finished. For rooms that have more than one instrument, they will audition in the order posted. Doublers will be allowed to audition out of order as needed but must audition while their instrument is "open" in a room. For example, a saxophonist who is auditioning on alto, tenor, and bari will need to audition in the bari room before the room closes bari sax auditions. (Please pay attention to the order that rooms with multiple instruments will audition)
