@whispers Cool. 8D I hate auditions. >.> The judges are creepy, always creepy. ._.

I have to audition for my school's chamber orchestra next week. I was going to do it last week, but I had a music thing on Friday, and then this Friday I have a concert.xD

O_O Erm... xD I don't really feel like trying mine.

@awesomeness365
Auditions are creepy, yes.
And I don't like 2 octave scales, I have to shift, and I make a weird sound from between the notes I have to shift for x3
I think I'm getting a better chair than last year, I hope (I got last chair and I had no stand partner, lol)

@whispers xD For my audition, I have to play a C major scale, how many octaves. xD I'm working on my 4 octave, but it gets bad when I'm shifting down. xD
xDD I don't like when I don't have a stand partner. I feel all alone. .3.

@awesomeness365
Oh god, 4 ocatves? o.o I can only do two. XD
I had to play A major and F major. Shifting on both.

Having no stand partner makes it so you don't know what you're doing because you're in the back and you can't hear the conductor *real life experience, lol*

@whispers Yesh. Oh. I usually have to do 3 octaves, because I do them out of a book, and it has 3 octaves with arpeggios, and 4 octaves with arpeggios. o3o I've learned all of my majors, but I forget them all already. 8D

xD Yup. And then you mess up, and you're like, "Crud, where the heck are we?" xD That might've happened to me before. Maybe.

@whispers

I play the cello. I feel that cellos and violas always play second fiddle (haha that pun was not intended) to violins 😋

My friend who also plays cello has a younger brother who plays viola.

How long have you been playing?
