What we calibrate for violinists
Concerto-grade dimension scoring
Tone, intonation, rhythm, tempo, and musicality scored on the same rubric a real conservatory or all-state panel uses. No generic 'good job': bar-specific notes only.
Caprice-aware drill prescriptions
Paganini, Wieniawski, Sevcik: the Judge knows which etudes target which weak dimensions and queues a 20-minute daily drill for the gap it heard.
Section-context calibration
First chair vs. back stand expectations differ. Set your audition target and the rubric tightens or loosens against the standard for that chair.
