My D auditioned on campus on 1/26 and they asked for 16 bar cuts, if I am remembering correctly. (We just returned from NYC Unifieds, so it's all beginning to run together, like a watercolor painting left out in the rain. How's that for poetry, folks?

) Some of the kids were surprised, as the CMU Web site seems to indicate you can sing through the whole song. If you're smart, you will have 16- and 32-bar cuts ready, just in case. It may have to do with how many they are auditioning on a given day.
