[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter audition for 6th grade mcyo and was denied a seat. She is really good and i am wondering is it because she didn’t start with them at a young age or because during the audition their was a single judge grading her performance and just didn’t like her. They also don’t provide any feedback on why she wasn’t selected. I think for a $75 registration fee, the least they can do is give some idea why she wasn’t selected. Like if you really cared about music and helping students nurture their love for music (as they supposedly claim), you could at least tell them what they can improve on. All these practices make me wonder how true and corrupt their audition and selection process really is.[/quote]

I'd certainly talk with your private teacher about your daughter's level and the teacher's expectation of whether she should have gotten in. As a pp stated, there are kids auditioning from all over, so it's very competitive. You might want to look at PVYO also. And my kid's string teacher mentioned Washington Asian Philharmonic Orchestra (https://wapomusic.org/?page_id=19) as a low-key alternative. (This was info from last year: "WAPO is a small chamber strings ensemble led by Dr. Shy-Luen Chen, we are looking for musicians of all ages level 4 and up. No audition is required")[/quote]
