Cleveland List

happyroman · Post by **happyroman** » Fri Oct 21, 2005 2:14 pm

Could someone who took the initial Cleveland audition (or has been accepted to the upcoming audition) please post the list (or lists if they are different). Thanks.

Doing a search on the current BBS and archives, I have found audition repertoire lists for the following auditions:

Louisville, Met Opera, San Francisco, New Mexico, Seattle, Alabama, Honolulu, Charleston, Dayton, Colorado, Boston, New York, National, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Vermont, Arnold Jacobs ITEC (2 lists), and Chicago Civic (2 lists).

If anyone has a recent list not included here, I would also be interested in seeing those posted.

I would also be happy to share these lists with anyone out there who is interested in having them.

I don't think it's unreasonable for a top orchestra to expect a potential principal to know all of the important symphonic repertoire... at the very least it's a way of weeding out the less experienced.
