Aptitude tests for metro musicians

On March 14th, a new edition of the selection tests for musicians aspiring to perform at designated points within the metro network will take place. Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona (TMB) and the AMUC BCN (Street and metro musicians association of Barcelona) are the organizers of this call, which will be held at the entrance hall of the Universitat L2 station, from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM.

The suitability test involves each candidate performing a couple of excerpts from their repertoire, with a maximum duration of three to five minutes. A jury, composed of professional music teachers, will audit the test and evaluate criteria such as interpretative quality, repertoire variety, originality and creative richness of the proposal, and cultural, stylistic, and instrumental diversity.

If the jury's evaluation is favorable, the musician will receive the AMUC BCN membership card and will be able to participate in the association's projects, including performances at the metro.
