Yesterday, I emailed the orchestra to ask for
an excerpt list. I thought that was a pretty
fair request.

I thought that it was rather strange that they
will not provide an excerpt list until you
have paid $100. What's up with that? People
on the west coast need to weigh all the options
before making the commitment to travel to NY
or Chicago.

Also, with the big sacking, it sounds like
a really weird scene to go into. Talk about
treating musicians like commodities! Who knows;
maybe they were pretty bad, but the gal on tuba
was only there for a few years.

Anyone think there will be much interest in
this audition? Check out the bone section:

It ain't Charlie Vernon and Joe Alessi.
