For musicians preparing orchestral auditions, the Audition Excerpt Collection and Advanced Excerpt Collection: Physical Setup address both the musical and physical demands of real audition situations.

Based on direct audition experience — including winning positions with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, The Cleveland Orchestra, Minnesota Orchestra, and Colorado Symphony — these resources focus on what actually works behind the screen.

• 40 standard excerpts with detailed notes, tempos, bowings, fingerings, and QR-linked videos

• Clear musical priorities committees listen for

• Repeatable physical setups to maintain control, prevent shaking, and reduce rushing under pressure

Together, they provide a practical, measure-by-measure framework for reliable, high-level audition performance.
