Well, it's inevitable. Every musician must face the dreaded audition. The wonderful part is that M and I are able to do it together! Auditioning for an orchestra is never fun, but I find that, in the end, it helps to make me a far better musician. These days, I actually try to enjoy the process rather than fearing it. This symphony is a decent orchestra, and we are pleased to even be a part of it. Most importantly, we grow as musicians.
One thing we can always take pride in is how hard we work at preparing audition excerpts. I find that solid preparation goes a long way in helping to alleviate many concerns. Sure, there are always pre-audition jitters, but we have confidence in our brains and in our hands. More importantly, we have confidence in EACH OTHER. In the end, we're better people and better musicians because of auditions...
