Well, she had her Commercial music audition at Belmont & it went well, I think. She really liked the school. She was disturbed that she wasn’t allowed to finish every piece that she auditioned with - she only got through 3/4 of Joplin and 1/2 of the Bach…not flawless but done well…but they listened to all of her improvisational commercial pieces. I reminded her that they said they might do that (stop her before she finished) in the information session but I guess she felt weird about it. The sight reading & theory parts went well. We’ll find out in a few weeks about the music school acceptance there.

She has 2 more auditions coming up - both at much less competitive schools than she’s tried for so far. Thanks for the interest & support!
