That's a sad thing. Truly one of the "unsung" heros of the tuba world. What a player!

They forgot Bydlo.

I am convinced that 90% of the problems with rhythm, tone, intonation, articulation, technique, and overall prowess on the horn are related to air issues.

G is still the highest note of the audition. They aren't cutting you much slack, just a half step.

That was my way of saying that they forgot to throw in the kitchen sink, too.LJV wrote:In some orchestras Bydlo isn't the responsibility of the tubist. I don't know if that's the case in the NJSO, but not seeing it on the list or in the VERY NICE FREE excerpts download that they a providing to anyone who cares to click on their link leads me to believe that they may feel it's not a criteria they wish to consider when auditioning their new tubist...MileMarkerZero wrote:They forgot Bydlo.
Gee, real world common sense in an orchestra. How refreshing.
