Anybody know who advanced to semis? Finals?

[Jack Hoeksema]

Dan Castillo from CU was a finalist

[DaTubaKid]

From what I've heard, the finalists were:

Dan Castillo
Genevieve Clarkson
Simon Wildman
Kyle Huron

...although I make this statement with no sense of authority, just merely passing on what I've heard through the grapevine's grapevine.

Pretty sure that's correct.

Any word?

[Phillip B]

Here's a start:

I know that there were 18 in the first round, and 5 people advanced. An additional 5 were added to that group (finalists from March and/or currently in a regional USAF band). From that round of 10, 4 were advanced to the finals this afternoon.

Did anyone get hired?

Daniel Walley of Manhattan School of Music won the position. It was a great, and competitive audition! Congrats to all who participated, especially Daniel.
