About this exposition

This research addresses the needs of young cellists, who in their final years of studies are looking for tools for preparing for and participating in orchestral auditions. The research has two main objectives: firstly to make a catalogue of orchestral excerpts for cello highlighting 10 excerpts and classifying them into three categories: style periods, the Left hand (fast and slow) and the Right hand (legato, spicatto, portato). The second objective involves practice-based exploration of three excerpts while exploring methods for audition preparation. The research process involved cataloguing the excerpts that numerous renowned orchestras such as, Residentie Orkest Den Haag,New York Philharmonic, St. Petersburg Philharmonic, Orquesta Nacional de España, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Orchesterakademie der Wiener Philharmoniker require for cello auditions. From this broader set of excerpts, I selected the most common repertoires for further practice-based study. I selected three excerpts: Symphony No. 5, movement 2 by Ludwig Van Beethoven, Symphony No. 6, movement 2 by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky(both for cello tutti), Overture Poet and Peasant by Franz von Suppé (for cello solo). I focused on the challenges I faced learning each of the selected excerpts and provided fingerings, bowings, and technical exercises for each. In addition, I discuss mental and physical warm-up exercises with regard to audition preparation and how these might influence performance during auditions.
