If he played with more vibrato he'd fit right in, with a D grade brass band

Wow...what does one say after a musical performance of that caliber? I'm simply speechless

Well, one of the audition panel replied "we'll be in touch"

At least this one is more interesting to look at...

Not specifically an audition but interesting in another way though...

Whoever it was, they sure took the ART out of MOZART.

Can't be a pro audition, my guess is college level. Everyone has to start somewhere.

1. the toe tapping is annoying
2. the sound quality of the camera and mic is bad
3. the arrangement doesn't to really emphasize the different parts of the music (the bass, accompaniment , and solo are all in a similar register)

But,
Given that they are in High School, I'd want to hear them again in a few years as I have heard undergrad double reed players who were far worse than this.

Hah hah, the first one had me laughing out loud. I listened all the way through in order to get the most out of it. IMHO, It really might be a spoof.
