Hi everyone.

My completed repertoire of recent years is WTC 2 C major, chopin 10/8, chopin post waltz, brahms 117/1, and beethoven op 10 no 1.
I have the opportunity to play a movement in a concerto competition for college, and I wanted to give it a shot. I did chamber ensemble for piano in high school, but we all know nobody actually tries in that. More recently, I'm doing standchen with a vocalist (performing soon!!), and Plog's miniatures for tuba (modern composer, kinda ugly, but more experience; also a performance).
This would be my first concerto, and I like it for the following reasons: short first movement, it has a really simple but uncommon structure, and it sounds awesome. My bach is decent, enough, and I have a terrific appreciation for the style. I know what I need to voice and how to do it. The only thing I'm worried about is how to blend my sound with the orchestra. Anyone have any advice? Is this a good idea or bad? I got 6 months before the competition, more or less.
