Panel-ready practice tips
- 1.The Dittersdorf is a Classical concerto. Panels expect period-appropriate style: minimal vibrato on running passages, clean articulation, ornaments at cadences.
- 2.The opening theme's intonation in upper positions is the audition's first test. Practice with a drone.
- 3.The Classical bow stroke is detaché, not modern sustained. Short, articulated notes in the Allegro.
- 4.Ornaments: a simple trill at each cadence is appropriate. Over-ornamentation is a stylistic minus.
- 5.Tempo is steady throughout. The Classical concerto does not use rubato the way Romantic concertos do.
