About this exposition

Name: Hendrik Marinus Main subject: Horn Research Supervisor: Pete Saunders Title of Research: Horn auditions in Holland, Germany, Austria and Belgium. Research Question: What is the difference in playing an audition for orchestras in Holland, Germany, Austria and Belgium? Summary of Results: An orchestra audition might be the most unnatural situation for a musician, yet it is the only way to get a position in an orchestra. The player has a few minutes to show his best capacities, and lots of times dozens of musicians audition for only one position. I did quite some auditions in Holland and abroad. Sometimes with good results, sometimes less good. The feedback afterwards is different every time, which made me wondering: in what way do I need to adjust to what the jury wants to hear? This research focuses on horn auditions in Holland, Germany, Austria and Belgium. It consists a part about history and traditions from the most prominent orchestras in these countries. Also, I interviewed horn players who are auditioning and horn players who are playing in orchestras in these countries and I took lessons with some of them. This research ends with a guide for horn players who are interested in auditions in the countries mentioned above, which contains repertoire and more information. Biography: Hendrik Marinus is freelance horn player and conductor. Currently, he studies horn and orchestra master with Herman Jeurissen at the Royal Conservatory and the Residentie Orkest. In Groningen, he finished bachelors in both french horn with Frank Brouns and Wind Band Conducting with Tijmen Botma. Hendrik is member of the European Brass Ensemble and is substitute player in various professional orchestras in Holland, such as Noord Nederlands Orkest, Ballet Orkest, Philharmonie Zuid Nederland and Marinierskapel der Koninklijke Marine.
