Tips for Auditioning:
Tips for Auditioning:
1. Make sure to get a good night sleep the night before the audition
2. Make sure to eat before your performance (no sugar, coffee or soda) - something like bread or a banana if you are not allergic.
3. Be prepared on your excerpts - Every note, every bowing, every articulation, every dynamic and memorize it if possible
4. Be prepared if there is a sight reading component to the audition. Practice sight reading when ever you can.
