Emily asked:


I have an audition and interview tomorrow at Berklee College of Music in Boston, and I’m soooo nervous!
This is my top, favorite school, but my very first interview and audition. I don’t want to mess up or make a fool of myself! I’ve prepared my piece, but am still very nervous about the sight reading, ear training, ‘blues progression’ and stuff.

Any words of wisdom, advice, tips, and suggestions would be appreciated!!

Hey guys, I am auditioning for northern regionals, an honors chorus, band, and orchestra this Saturday for voice. I have to sing scales, Alma Del Corre, and sight read. i would like to know how to prepare. I have the music for the song, and I have practiced the scales, and I have done sight reading in chorus class. But my teacher gave me a cd of the song in the wrong key, and I have been practicing with it. So now I think I am screwed. CRAP>PLEASE HELP!!!

I am a O.K. trumpet player, and if I have a piece of music that I have practiced and know how to play, I do it fine. But I just cant sight read, and I have to be able to, to get into an orchestra I want to join. I really want to get better, and people always say you just need practice but I’ve been trying for a long time and I still can’t. So if someone could give me some tips that would be great!!!
Thx
