Brad,

One other piece of advice... slightly related:

While we all definitely have to play hundreds upon hundreds of repetitions of our excerpts to make them audition-win-worthy, I always tell people to work on being a better player and the excerpts will improve as a matter of course. (simple example: If your tonguing on the opening of the Ravel Piano Concerto is poor, don't just work on the Ravel. Work on your tonguing.)

Good luck,

Jeff Work
