Hi all,
I'm a junior in high school and I study classical double bass. As someone planning on auditioning for conservatories, what advice/repertoire do you suggest for someone? For a point of reference, I auditioned to the Curtis program with Gliere's Intermezzo and the Gigue from Bach Suite 1. I recently played the Bottesini 2 with my orchestra for an end of the year concert. I've had a few prospective student lessons at places like Indiana, Eastman and Peabody and had good feedback from all of them. How do I know if I'm ready for auditions?
