Audition Recording Tips

I recently gave a presentation to the Juilliard PreCollege brass department about recording; covering basics about sound and the equipment used, as well as important things for our students to keep in mind while making audition recordings (“audition tapes”).

Later, I sat down with Rebecca Braun, the Juilliard Pre-College’s Performance Activities Coordinator, and author of the PreCollege Newsletter, to answer some questions for the Newsletter related to making an audition recording. She wanted to share some of the information I had taught the brass class with the whole student body.
