Auditions are TOUGH

With a concerto and a long list of excerpts, auditions take months of preparation.

A lot of musicians ask, “Are we really supposed to know ALL of that music?”

The answer is “yes.” In fact, the cellists who win know the repertoire backwards and forwards.

But learning excerpts this well can take years of trial and error, and thousands of dollars in lesson fees and failed auditions. (There’s a reason almost no one wins their first audition.)

I created my video masterclass to give aspiring cellists a faster, more economical way to learn all the notes. My video series teaches you the ins and outs of the most common excerpts in the cello audition repertoire.

And unlike a lesson, you have the information at your fingertips forever.

My video masterclass teaches EXACTLY what committees are looking for in the 11 most common excerpts:

• The right tempos

• The right style

• The right sound

• My favorite practice hacks

• Performance practice details that aren’t in the sheet music

• Techniques to help you play your best, even if you’re nervous!

As a longtime member of the audition committee of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, I know EXACTLY what the audition committee is listening for. I can show you what the judges are looking for in the most common excerpts so that you are completely prepared.

My library of excerpt videos will be your “secret weapon” for every audition you take, throughout your career.
