hallooo I have some tips that I hope will help when auditioning: -eat a banana -don't talk to ur friends before ur audition -focus on yourself and be cocky asf knowing you got it (but don't be outwardly cocky just know you can do it!) -pluck silently before you start -don't even think about the scale or the piece because you might second guess yourself and get parts wrong that you could have nailed hope these help
Brings back horrible memories from an audition I went to 10 years ago. Everything went well, we played well together, I was like "yeah, I got this!".... Until the very last note.... I ACCIDENTALLY PLAYED A SEMITONE OFF! 😱 And the judges went "aww, too bad." Took me years to get over the embarrassment.
I tried out for all state once for Horn and it was my first audition and I have severe stage fright. Right when I played a note during my audition and heard the judges pencil move I forgot everything. My mind went completely blank and I forgot all my scales. I left the room crying and I still had my second half of my audition, which was the Etude section. Let’s just say in the end all my hard work went to wast because I got an 8.65 out of 60 on my audition and all I did was embarrass myself. Ever since this has become my biggest fear in music. Playing for an audition or test and forgetting everything.
I discovered this channel a few days ago and since then have been binging your guys' videos. I see notification of new vid, I happy. How are both of you so funny and addicting? Btw, I don't even play violin but I do have the necessary amount of knowledge regarding classical music to know that Ling Ling is a god.
Story Time! One Time I walked in to audition and needed to play a scale. The judge said I could have one hint. Being the intelectual I am; I asked him what note the scale started on! I messed up misserbly and got a 10/100 on my score sheet.
I recently watched your 'This is what you learn in Music University' and I thought it might be a good idea for you to make a video on the differences between going to uni to learn the violin vs going to private violin classes directly instead of uni.
These are all things I don’t do when I practice, but for some reason still do when I audition. This is, of course, isn’t helped by the _literal_ panic attacks I suffer from beforehand
Another thing: Dont get so nervous you start doing a tremolo on every note and end up not finishing the regional orch audition piece you were better at. I speak from experience
I am going to have an Audition let's see if they want me Update: didn't got accepted. They said i have to practice sight reading. But they also said that they would be happy if i try again in one year.

It's a little bit short : you can pratice all day long ( I used to practice 10 hours a day when I was young ) and fail at your exams. Practicing a lot doesn't mean to be efficient.
Practice is the most important obviously, but there is also the mental factor. You can play like Heifetz in your house and then feel so terrified in stage that you end up playing considerably worse than you can. Playing in your house and playing during an audition are 2 whole different worlds. It is a nerve wracking experience so you must do a lot of separate work to be able to play well under a lot of pressure.
During my district's competition for school I froze before the scales and just ended up playing the Bb concert scale very out of tune in the hope that it would do something and failed miserably.
well, that's great news! my best traits are dragging the slow ones, rushing on the fast ones, and making magical changes in tempo every phrase! It's all going to help me on an audition I have next week monday. yay for me
I somehow started thinking about the fact that the same two people came to audition over and over again. Just imagine that as a real-life scenario, the judges must be so pissed xD
I remember a first year who had our entire orchestra panel in tears because she was involuntarily grunting along as she played. She didn't get in and I could hardly look her in the eye for the remaining years that we were at the same college 😂😂
