Re:
College Auditions
It will vary by school, I'm sure,
the exact procedures. Assume that they will ask for ALL of the
required music (make sure you have a complete list!). I took four
auditions for music school and I was never asked to play something
all the way through, usually played the first page of the concerto,
have a Bach movement, etc. Don't worry about repeats, etc; unless
they specify, just play as you normally would at a recital. I was
never asked for scales/arpeggios, but I was asked to play a prepared
etude.
In general, just keep to the golden audition
rules:
1) Make sure you have a complete list of required
music.
2) LEARN ALL OF IT, WELL.
3) Play what they ask
for, and keep in mind they know you're nervous... they are not
looking for perfection but rather for the potential for
perfection.
4) Relax, play well, enjoy yourself.
Good
luck!!!
