Shanghai Symphony Orchestra has announced that it will for the first time admit musical performers from all over the world.
More than 100 positions comprise the orchestra and auditions will be held in Shanghai, Berlin and New York in July.

Of a total of 105 performer positions in the orchestra, all except the orchestra principal and the musical director are open to the public. Any interested musician can apply for an audition before the deadline of June 30.

Five principals from world-class symphony orchestras will be invited to Shanghai to judge the auditions.
Established in 1879, Shanghai Symphony Orchestra was the first professional orchestra in China and one of the most influential orchestral ensembles in Asia. It has performed near 10,000 concerts, premiered several thousand works and collaborated with many world-class conductors, soloists and vocalists.
