The very thought of an audition might make you nervous, but what can you learn from being assessed in this way, and what do the musicians look for when they’re sitting on an audition panel? 

YolanDa Brown joins cellist Kristina Blaumane and trombone player Mark Templeton to get an inside look at orchestral auditions: from managing nerves, to how to distinguish between players when you have to listen to up to 80 hours of audition recordings… 

Plus, a listener asks how the musicians stay motivated when their busy musical lives become a bit overwhelming…
