Does anyone know what kind of chairs the finalists will be sitting on?

I heard the orchestra had to sell their chairs, and that the finalsts have to play sousaphone.

They are still selecting their chairs. Someone told me what kind it will be, but I'm not telling... :)

We are building an orchestra of extraordinary magnitude.

I heard that for the finals, they'll be playing behind the viola section.
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

It is my understanding that in Detroit, the curtain never comes down during any stage of the audition process. This includes finals. It would be my thought then that one could not play with the trombone section, assuming one or more of them are on the committee. Then again I could be all wrong. It has happened before.
I saw ghost riders in the sky, and they each played a York EEb tuba.
