Indianapolis Symphony
Hey Forum World. Question here. The Indianapolis Symphony posted a one year principal trumpet audition on July 10th with the audition application being due by the end of the day and the audition being held on the 20th with no repertoire list available prior to the application being submitted. Upon some further investigation the repertoire list is maybe six pieces all being the most common principal trumpet excerpts out there. So I guess my question is- is this turning into a new normal especially regarding the numerous one-year auditions popping up?
I apologize if this is in the wrong sub category on this site. I'm just curious to think what other people think about this and if this is the expectation now. Thanks!

I appreciate that, and I can say with confidence that my colleagues and I value a fair process tremendously; because we want the best result possible for our orchestra. Having gone through many auditions myself, I, personally, am deeply committed to ensuring a fair process for all, because if I was on the other side of the screen, that's what I would want. My colleagues who have sat on committees with me can attest to this.
