Re: Fuzzy tone once again...

I've taught about a dozen TMEA all-state students in the past few years. I myself did very well in the system when I was in high school. I'd like to think that I have a good understanding of how the system works.

Play the etudes fast and play them clean. These auditions are really about not making mistakes more than about trying to play beautifully. It's unfortunate, but the students who make all-state all have solid technique even if other parts of their playing are lacking.

It's important to understand that the people judging these auditions are not ideal. They are almost all band directors. Sometimes they don't even play the instrument they are judging. You have to play in a way that is hard to criticize.
