    I adore this woman, she is a splendid violinist and she seems like a beautiful person inside as well. Thank you for this video, and please thank her for this very helpful suggestions.

    I know this is NOT something easy, but I think I would very much love to see Mrs. Adams do a video demonstration of orchestral excerpts of how to practice, how to play them, etc.
    Thank you!

    Hi Kathryn, they would be useful for auditions for any orchestra or college - they weren't meant to be specific to auditioning for the LSO, but should you find yourself in that position in the future they would probably come in useful... ;-)

    Glad it was useful! Yes it's a general guideline but of course having sat in on a decade of auditions at Lso I am putting my own expectations across. The only thing I'd add is since the video, there have been some comments about wanting auditionees to play from memory. This would be made clear hopefully in any information u receive before any audition. All the best!

      vln111 are there scales at most auditions? And arpeggios? How fast should we play them, and vibrato or no vibrato on scales? Thank you soooo much!

    Daniela hopefully this is something that I can ask the Lso to look into!

    Fantastic video, and not just useful for string players! Is there any chance of publishing audition tips for timpanists and percussionists?

    Kiki o do u mean a piece for solo violin? Usually a violin orchestral audition will require 1st mvts of Mozart and a big romantic concerto.

    Why is it always Mozart's violin concertos?? Why can't it be Bach's violin concertos??

      bach's ochestra's differ from philarmonic orchestra's i believe

    • @aemuellja

      because they want a romantic concerto

    • @josephengel8263
      @josephengel8263 5 років тому +2

      Romantic concertos tend to be more of a challenge technically and expressively. Not that Bach’s concertos can’t be these things, but romantic concertos consciously push the players limits in these areas which make them more suitable for auditions
