BrassFusion Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 I practiced for a while yesterday, because in a few weeks I'll be auditioning for 3rd or 4th spot in Pontiac Oakland Symphony (POS, hahahaha). I was surprised that I sounded as good as I did, because I don't practice too often... But somehow, my range was pretty impressive. The lows were low and the highs were high and I had flexibility that I WAY didn't expect to have after taking a break for the summer. And omg I just picked up the horn... I sound twice as good as I did yesterday, my god. I'm so excited I couldn't even figure out which forum to post this under. WOOT.

BrassFusion Posted August 22, 2006 Author Posted August 22, 2006 lol!!!!!!!!! Fresh from my inbox: Hello horn players, I regret to inform you that the Pontiac Oakland Symphony will have to postpone the horn auditions. The date is still yet to be determined. The auditions will be for Principal horn, 3rd horn and 4th horn. Due to the additional vacancy within the section we would like to allow everyone the opportunity to audition for all vacancies and have ample time to prepare. We are trying to narrow down a date towards the end of September. I apologize for any inconvenience and will be sure to notify you immediately with details. Thank you for your patience. Sincerely, Sherri Magno, Personnel Manager Paraphrased for hilarity: Dear Horn players: I regret to inform you than instead of just 2 spots, you're now all auditioning for 3 spots, meaning your odds are slightly better. Also, one of you gets to be the new principal of the section. Oh. And the audition's going to be later so you have more time to practice. So sorry. =( POS Personnel Director (I love this woman...)
