<p>I have trouble imagining a college admissions person or music faculty spending 10-15 minutes listening to every music CD that comes in. I think it helps to think about why they would like an arts supplement from those who feel they can contribute on campus.</p>
<p>This is not a conservatory audition. Most or all of these schools do not have performance majors. I think that, basically, they want to know how you can add to the “mix” of students and talents on campus, and in your case would be looking to see if you could contribute to band, orchestra or other ensembles once there.</p>
<p>Your music resume and All-State experiences and any other accomplishments also show that you are a disciplined, committed person, which is important regardless of whether you pursue music at college, and these things tell admissions a lot about who you are and what your high school life has been like.</p>
<p>They only want arts supplements from people whose talent justifies sending them, and it would seem that you fit that bill. So good luck!</p>
