It shoul be approximately 3-5 minutes in length,in any style,which emonstrates your instrumental proficiency an your overall musicianship. Do not choose a piece or a style of music you think the auition team wants to hear. Rather,select a piece that puts your "best foot forwar" an highlights what you feel represents your best playing. Ultimately,the auition is a iscovery process an we want to fin out what you o well. 准备曲目：伯克利音乐学院接受并尊重各自风格的音乐，所以你只需要准备那些让你觉得舒服的，能展现你作为一个音乐家才能的曲目即可。试听大概 3-5 分钟长，可以是任何风格，只要能展现你的乐器熟练度和整体音乐家素质。不用选择那些你认为审理官可能会喜欢听的乐曲和风格。相反，你只要选择自己能尽力而为的，突出你特长的曲目。最后，试听是一个过程，让审理官发现你最棒方面的过程。

It is recommene to seek the guiance of your private instructor an/or musical mentor when selecting your prepare piece. Here are some examples an aitional guielines that may help when selecting your prepare piece:

1. A tune from a well-known artist or ban (any style)
2. A stanar or jazz tune (which may inclue blues an rhythm changes) with your own improvisation
3. A composition from the instrumental/voice repertoire or an aria or musical theater selection
4. A transcription of a well-known artist's solo 建议申请人在挑选准备曲目时，向自己的音乐指导老师寻求一些建议。下面的几个例子和一些额外的指导建议，有可能会在你选择曲目时有帮助：
5. 一首来自知名音乐家或乐队的曲子（任何风格）
6. 一支你即兴创作的标准或 jazz 曲目（可以包含 blues 或者韵律变化）
7. 一首作曲，可以是乐器或者歌唱曲目，或者咏叹调，或者是音乐剧选曲

If composing or songwriting is your primary focus,you may choose to play an original piece that showcases your iniviual style. However,the original piece shoul be no longer than three (3) minutes,an you shoul also prepare a secon piece from the above listing (no longer than 3 minutes). 如果作曲和写歌是你的主要方向，你可以选择一首展现个人风格的原创曲目。但是原创曲目不能超过三分钟，同时你仍然需要准备一首上面列表中的类型的曲目（不超过三分钟） If you require accompaniment for your prepare piece you may bring an accompanist,play-a-long CD or MP3 player.
