I did not write that that person should be excluded, but if you want a truly fair audition based on ability, then that person needs to start in an equal position to every other candidate behind a screen. That is simply not the case when people are pre-advanced.
Conversely, giving your friends, people who you’ve worked with, your relatives, your lovers, etc. a leg up at an audition that claims to be “fair” is, in fact, the very definition of nepotism..."
HeyHoHey,
I did not write anything about audition process, only about excluding a certain player from a competition based on his ties to the orchestra or to a person who is in the position to influence the results of an audition.
I do agree it is fear that everyone starts from the same point of the audition process. Would it guarantee the fair judgement?
Not necessarily since the musical abilities of the person that, otherwise, would have been pre-advanced, are known to the member(s) of the audition committee, that person will simply advance to the second round because it will be known when he/she is playing, even behind a curtain.
In addition, assuming that a member of the audition committee will advance an inferior player who they know vs. a better player who they do not know is only an assumption.
For example, during the audition at BSO a very well known player who is a friend of Bill Hodges did not win the position.
Anyway, I am learning a lot about "internal workings" of being a professional musician (not that I would ever benefit from the knowledge).
