The Witness · Mark XCIII · Sample report

What a Judge report looks like.

Below is a realistic example based on the actual rubric the Judge applies to every take. The data is anonymized; the voice, shape, and depth match what you'd get after recording a 30-second take of your own audition repertoire.

A. — violist · 2 days ago

Mahler 9 · Mvt. I · Viola excerpt (mm. 3-27)

ADVANCE · 87

“Tone center is genuine, intonation is panel-grade, the rubato in m. 17 is the kind of choice a panel remembers.”

ToneCentered

91

The bow is actually finding the string. Core sound has weight without forcing. C string on m. 11 was the strongest moment of the take.

IntonationClean

89

F-sharp pivot on m. 9 is reliable. One drift on the descending C-major scale m. 23 — middle finger pulled flat under the upper neighbor.

RhythmLocked

85

Inter-onset variance under 7%. Pulse is felt, not counted. The triplet group in m. 19 lands cleanly even at the slower take tempo.

TempoStable

84

Held the marked 𝅗𝅥 = 60 within ±2 BPM across the take. No rushing into the climax — that's a panel-distinguishing choice.

MusicalityPhrasing carries

88

The shape from m. 13 to m. 17 actually goes somewhere. Held the dynamic descent without losing tone — most students collapse into mp by m. 15.

Strengths

  • • Tone center holds at quiet dynamics
  • • Tempo discipline through the climax
  • • Rubato on m. 17 reads as intentional, not nervous

Fix next

  • • Slow practice on the m. 23 C-major descent — middle finger seating
  • • One pass with a metronome at quarter = 80 to lock the m. 19 triplet group
  • • Bow distribution chart for the long note in m. 25 — currently using 60% in the first half

Drill prescription · 20 min/day

Sevcik Op. 1 No. 9 modified for the m. 23 figure

20-min daily session: 5 min of isolated middle-finger drops on F# / G / A 4th-finger, 10 min of the m. 21-25 phrase at quarter = 60 with metronome on every 8th, 5 min full-tempo run-through. Re-record in 4 days for trend signal.
