Oboe & Cor Anglais

University of Melbourne Symphonic Ensembles 2021 Auditions: Oboe & Cor Anglais Please prepare all excerpts from your chosen instrument. Need help preparing excerpts? Start now, by: • Listening to the pieces in their entirety, with full scores. Recordings of some of these excerpts are available online. Listen to the orchestras that you’ve heard of, first. Berlin, Chicago, New York, Vienna etc. Scores are available in the music library, or through web resources such as: o http://imslp.org/ o http://archives.nyphil.org/ • Do your initial work of sorting out tempos, all of the notes, intervals and rhythms first. Do all of this AWAY from your instrument. • Once you’ve got the tempo, notes, intervals, rhythms sorted, record yourself playing ONE phrase of an excerpt. Listen to the professional version, and then listen back to your version. Name something specific that is better about the professional recording. Learn to do that specific thing. Repeat process until they are the same. • Once you have the excerpts to a solid level of performance, record three of them in a row. Take a break, then come back and listen. Write down several specific things you know you need to fix, then spend 10 minutes working fix ONE of those specific things. • Take several excerpts (random order) and perform as a pretend audition. Always record these mock auditions. Sometimes play them in front of your parents, or sibling, or even your dog! No comments needed, just an audience. • Repeat every day (after a nice warm-up). Use the recording to decide what basics you’ll work on tonight or tomorrow morning before your next mock audition. 1 EXCERPT OVERVIEW OBOE (All Oboe 1 unless stated) RESPIGHI The Birds Mvt I Preludio, Fig. 2 – 9 measures before Fig. 3 Mvt II La Colomba, Beginning – Fig. 6 Ingolf DAHL Sinfonietta Mvt II, 3 measures before Fig. L – 10 measures before end of movement STRAVINSKY Pulcinella Suite Mvt VI Gavotta, Fig. 73 – Fig. 76 RAVEL Mother Goose Suite Mvt II Petit Poucet, mm. 4 – Fig. 1 ROSSINI The Barber of Seville Overture Fig. 8 – 15 measures before Fig. 9 MENDELSSOHN Symphony No. 4 “Italian” Mvt IV Saltarello, mm. 115 – 122 AND mm. 150 - 158 COR ANGLAIS RAVEL Mother Goose Suite Mvt II Petit Poucet, Fig. 1 – Fig. 2 AND Fig. 4 – Fig. 5 DAHL Sinfonietta (*note: this is on the oboe 2 part) Mvt II, 2 measures before Fig. I – Fig. J 2 OBOE Resphigi’s The Birds I.
