Friends does anyone have the tuba results of this year’s summer festival auditions? Can we make a list?

Hot Springs, Brevard, Aspen, Tanglewood, Lake George, NRO, all the others? Where can we find this?

Thank you. Wow. Searching these names on Google shows one is a college professor, one won the Fort Wayne Symphony in October, one won Palm Beach Philharmonic.

Being a freshman I didn’t realize festivals were this competitive. Guess I’ll have to look at workshops instead for now lol :tuba:

With this level of placement, it's kind of mystifying that ITEA didn't accept Aaron's application to speak and/or perform at the Arizona conference. :eyes:

Doesn’t mean to not try. Robyn Black at age 18 beat several pros for Milwaukee.

I took an audition for a “full time” orchestra in November that pays less than $40,000 a year. 106 people showed up, many with the same qualifications on paper as me.
