French or Russian?
So I had an audition with a professional symphony. I couldn't play as well as the other people there for starters, but in addition to that, I messed up considerably because I was nervous. But I made it that far, which says something I suppose. I think I might try again sometime.
I plan on doing another recital with my friend Jonathan at any rate. I think I might either do an all French recital (it would be almost overly romantic) or perhaps an all Russian one (heavy, depressing, and sometimes sarcastic). What do you think? :D
French repertoire I know:
Fuare "Apres un Reve" listen
OR his "Sicilienne" but I've never played it before ^^;
Saint-Saens cello concerto listen
Franck violin sonata (cello version) listen (2nd movement)
Russian repertoire:
Prokofiev ballade for cello and piano listen
Shostakovich cello sonata listen (4th movement)
Prokofiev cello sonata listen (1st movement)
