Audition Experience
Hi all-
I just wanted to report how my audition went in Toronto-in a word, "great"-I didn't even make it to the second round, but I know I played well. I was really impressed at how much they heard in the first round-Beethoven 5 (theme and second variation from movement 2), Brahms 2 (theme from second movement), La Mer(top line of cello quartet), Mozart 40 (development 1st mvt), Verdi Requiem (Offertorio) and Balcony Scene from Prokofiev Romeo and Juliet, and Variation 2 from Don Quixote.
There were 18 cellists at the audition and 6 made it to the semi final round. I left when I found out I wasn't advancing (I hate sticking around) so I don't even know if they hired anyone!
Anyway, it's over and I must say it was one of my better experiences. Thanks, Toronto-on to the next audition!

Houston?
Anyone around these cyberparts taking the Houston Symphony audition this week? That's my old chair they are auctioning!

(Hmmmm...I suppose those taking the audition have better things to do tonight than surf the web......)
