How to submit your music portfolio
Send all of your music portfolio materials via email to music@centennialcollege.ca. Please include your primary instrument in the subject line of the email – you must choose ONE primary instrument (such as “voice” or “guitar”). DO NOT submit videos as email attachments – please submit videos as links to YouTube that are typed into the body of the email. The YouTube videos can be public or unlisted videos. All other materials can be submitted via email attachment in the formats noted above (PDF and MP3). If you complete the theory test, please include the test codes in the body of the email.
Please only use music@centennialcollege.ca for music portfolio submissions. Any other questions about the MIAP program or the music portfolio should be sent to jfeyen@centennialcollege.ca.
Important Additional Instructions: Audition Videos
You can audition as a singer, rapper, or instrumentalist. As an instrumentalist, you can audition on any instrument, including turntables. The video must feature you performing “live,” that is, you must be clearly seen and heard actually singing and/or playing an instrument for the entire video (not lip-syncing, as in a music video). The pieces can be cover songs or original songs of any length. You should choose songs that you’re comfortable playing/singing and that best showcase your musical ability. Given the focus of the MIAP program, songs aligned with popular music (such as blues, rock, country, soul, hip-hop, r&b, etc.), world music (non-Western music), and/or Indigenous music are preferred. Pre-recorded accompaniment tracks can be used, but your playing/singing must be clearly heard above any pre-recorded accompaniment.
You must choose ONE primary instrument (such as “voice” or “guitar”), and both of your audition videos should feature you on your primary instrument. If your primary instrument is voice, you can accompany yourself on guitar, piano, or other instrument if you like, but only your voice will be evaluated. Important Additional Instructions: Music Theory Evaluation
