I am about to go to sleep. I wanted to say that this Saturday, the 20th, I have an audition for the FSU School of Music. It will be a classical double bass auditon. I'm scared out of my fucking mind.
I'm barely prepared. I'm going against people that have likely been playing all their lives. This will also be my first ever bass audition. I have a feeling that I'm screwed.
I'll be playing grade 1 pieces, maybe the first line of a concerto I'm learning if they ask. Unlikely, but I'm bringing it.
I'm hoping that there will be an interview about why I want to go there, because I just know that my performance isn't going to cut it. I'm going to play as well as I can, which isn't that great. I've got nothing to lose, except for a year of private lessons (which I so need).
So that's my rant. I'm done. Tomorrow morning I start that 8 hour drive. Wish me luck, 'cause I sure as hell need it
Brett
PS: I hope I get to play my scales, because those are damn good

just relax and remember that if you fuck up just pretend you meant to, it works in jazz, in classical though, well you're fucked.

I'm in Tallahassee. Whoo hoo.
I'm going to go check out the School of Music soon and then go hang out with some friends that go here. Haven't seen them in a while, should be fun.
It's in 21 hours... I'm dead.
Nah. I'm going to play my best and constantly remind them I've only been playing for 4 months... I'll put everything I've got into the interview

Well, I feel better now. I'm not in. Fuck those bitches.
I can't do anything but music. I'll reaudition in 6 months. If that doesn't go well, then, I don't know what I'll do. Maybe I'll start selling flowers at gas stations to eat.
What am I talking about? I feel worse
