All-state 2025

The Final Audition is Saturday, January 18, 2025 at Riverwood International Charter School.

If you pass second round, you will then get to perform February 27th-March 1st at the Classic Center in Athens with the other students from all over the state!

Here are some helpful tips from students who have made the last round of All-State in the past:

  • They practice sight-reading.

  • They practice daily for about 45 minutes or more.

  • They are very good sight-readers. They use sightreadingfactory.com or practicesightrheading.com regularly.

  • They practice their excerpts at half tempo with precision before they play it faster.

  • They practice sight-reading.

  • They practice slowly and with a metronome.

  • They practice sight-reading :)

  • Sometimes it makes sense to wait a year or so before we try for All-State so we can learn techniques and reading necessary to prepare for All-State.

  • Sight reading practice is 80% of what gets you through the second round.

  • Did I mention how important sight-reading is?

  • All of these rules have exceptions and I love to be proven wrong!
