Double Bass Double Bass Audition Winners

#208
The new Assistant Principal is Daniel Pendley from CCM and it is a one year position until they can hold an official audition. Congratulations to him. A great player and a deserving guy.

Hopefully KPO can talk more about the future of this spot. I only caught what I could during studio class.

This is an interim appointment, not a one-year position.
Mr. Sidney King has decided to retire from the position of Assistant Principal Bass of the Louisville Orchestra.
The earliest we could schedule an audition for the position is still a little bit away, so the Higher Ups decided to hire a "regular" to hold down the ass't. principal spot until the full-time audition could be held.
Looking forward to playing alongside Dan again!

See you all at the audition, ....

Thank you so much for your interest. I have retired from the Louisville Orchestra after 24+ years in order to more fully devote my energy to my teaching position at the University of Louisville and to my other playing opportunities. I wish the LO my best and I cannot offer any more details about impending auditions for the position other than to second the information that KPO has already posted.

Best wishes,
Sid King

Hi, I gather a lot has been discussed about me over the recent days. My buddy known as "SanchMaster" wrote about my success. I would greatly appreciate it if you guys would just relax. The "Sir D Sanch" part is a psuedonym that he devised. Yevtushenko is a common Russian last name. I'm of Russian descent if you people care so much. Talk about nosy. Since you guys are so eager to get in everyone's personal business, I'm not even going to disclose my first name. Yes, Yevgeny Yevtushenko is a famous Russian poet. However, Yevgeny is not my first name. I happen to have the last name as him. If my last name was Twain, would you guys say that I'm the novelist from the late 19th century? The content written by my friend is valid. You all are wasting your time and making complete fools out of yourselves. Maybe you guys should practice or do something productive with your time instead of worrying about what's being written on this website. Let's all join hands and sing we are the world---let's be cival.

congratulations, Yevtushenko.
If your friend had called himself D Sanch Twain or Markie Twain, I would have thought that he was playing.
That being said, tell us all how the auditions went. You must be very excited to have won the job. How was the list?

I'd love to oblige and be cival. if I knew what it meant.

Mark Twain's real name was Sam Clemens, but that's neither here nor there.

I wouldn't get too upset by this. People on this forum tend to overreact whenever there's a stab at humor. They seem to think this audition gossip is too important or whatever to be poked fun at.

Also, I didn't realize the name Yevtushenko was so common. My apologies.

you're absolutely right, and Yevtushenko is an extremely honorable name to carry. My beef is mainly with the other guy's profile. hope there aren't too many women in his section.
