I've got another college audition question. In adition to my 3 pieces, I have
to do this:
"... play all major scales (two octave range), all minor scales in 3 forms,
whole tone scales, diminished scales-dominant 7th and diminished arpeggios..."

Now, that seems like an awful lot of scales being that my audition is only
supposed to be 15 minutes long, including my prepared pieces. I'm assuming
that, like a high school audition, we have to know all the scales, and then
the audition judge person will ask you to play a few specific ones. But I will
be making a tape. Is my asumption correct? And since I'm making a tape should
I play all the scales, or are there only a few that i should play? I'm
assuming I sould play the hardest ones... Thank You!
