<p>how much does sending in a very good music tape really matter? i’m sending in a piano tape of 3 pieces and (hopefully) sound almost professional. however, i’m no emmanuel ax (although i wish) or one of the amazing young performers. although i’m not absolutely superb, would a very solid performance still help a lot in the admissions process? i’ve heard stories about people being admitted because they were very good musicians (i’m also solid in everything else).</p>
<p>so to sum it up, how much does it matter? just wondering- thank you!</p>
