We started off the day with some auditions. For the most part, the symphony orchestra musicians know their parts, but a lot of the players have to fake their way through some of the tougher passages if they play them at tempo.  There are only a handful from each section that can actually execute them. Concert orchestra has quite a few more glaring errors and a much lower percentage of accurate notes.  I was able to run the concert orchestra warm up in Bb today, as well as a section of the Elgar Seranade. We listened to more auditions after school until about 6 pm.
