| Huge congrats to Kaysmom's daughter! Way to go! I also agree to not read into what you are asked to do or not in the audition. It can be interpretted either way and you'd drive yourself nuts. It must be so wonderful to have an early acceptance. It makes the entire audition season less anxiety-ridden.
I am very glad to hear that Emerson has made some changes to the audition day. It is not that it was bad or anything like that but it seems like they did improve some areas. Maybe they read CC! LOL! I recall two years ago everyone talking about how there was no presenation, no current students, nothing for the parents, no information about the program, etc.
Also, they did ask Why Emerson to each kid in the group and so that was a kind of weird thing. You had to be more original as they went down the line.
I hope maybe they also changed the rooms where you sing because my D thought the room was so small making it too "in your face" if you are singing a belting song, or it just was different than elsewhere in that regard.
All of these things are not at all to say it was not a good audition experience because it was just fine. It is more feedback about the differences as to how each school sets it up, etc. |
