Audition Repertoire
on: July 11, 2020, 01:50:13 PM
Hello everybody, I’m new here.
I have a question about audition repertoire for university.
The two contrasting pieces I have chosen are Chopin’s Ballade No. 2 and Bach Prelude and Fugue in A minor BWV 543.
Can anybody give me advice on whether these pieces are a good choice?

Which school are you auditioning for?
If it just needs two contrasting pieces, then yes I would say that these are good selections.

I’m assuming your audition is for undergraduate. If so then I think that programme is great. Lots of technical and musical aspects to show the panel. They usually don’t listen to everything in it’s entirety just because of time.

Good luck

Take Your Seat! Trifonov Plays Brahms in Berlin

“He has everything and more – tenderness and also the demonic element. I never heard anything like that,” as Martha Argerich once said of Daniil Trifonov. To celebrate the end of the year, the star pianist performs Johannes Brahms’s monumental Piano Concerto No. 2 with the Philharmoniker and Kirill Petrenko on December 31.
