Welcome new and returning students!
If you are planning to audition for a St. Olaf music ensemble, please review the concert attire expectations below so that you can prepare as necessary over the summer before arriving on campus. (For ensembles not listed here, your conductor will communicate concert attire details upon arrival.)
If you anticipate financial issues with obtaining concert attire, you are invited to apply for “Emergency Fund” assistance via this website once you arrive on campus. If you have non-financial questions about concert attire, contact musicorgs@stolaf.edu.
Please note that both instrumental and choral ensembles have two types of concert attire: Standard and Alternate. Be sure to scroll to the bottom of the page for a description of alternate concert attire.

Your conductor will let you know when you should wear alternate concert attire instead of standard concert attire.
