How would one go about making all state band on clarinet. I practice everyday on my scales making sure they're smooth and I just got the etudes off the Web. I'm doing the whole slow practice on the technical etudes and everything and am doing my best to create dynamic contrasts on all of them (fast and slow) too. What else can I do to ensure that I'll make it?
*edit: I do have all of my scales memorized. I didn't make Area last year, because as a freshman I didn't realize all of the work that had to be put into the music. But my band director says I have what it takes to make All- State (a nice warm tone, excellent articulation...). I have matured and learned a lot from my past failure of not making it though and I know know that I need to work my butt off. BTW I'm trying out for the Texas All-State Band and I am actually playing Rose etude no. 26 and Rose studies 20 and 34. Sorry I wasn't clear about that earlier... But thank you all for the advice you have given me. I am currently applying your wisdom to my practicing and how I will audition. Thanks again!
