<p>Bruch Violin Concerto 3rd Mvt. </p>

<p>I'm kind of worried that it's not a balanced list and the pieces are not contrasting enough. I'm not applying as a music major.What do you guys think?</p>

<p>Nigun and the Wieniawski is plenty of contrast. For a conservatory audition, you would want something more substantial – the first movement of a major concerto and some solo Bach – but for an arts supplement, I’m inclined to think that two strongly characterized short pieces, one very flashy and the other very lyrical, will work quite nicely. With supplements, the main question is always how much they will be listened to at all. Short pieces help sidestep the issue.
is this for next year?</p>

<p>We called admissions and asked if it would help to cue the music for the 3 minutes our daughter considered her “best work,” and they seemed appreciative. She is a junior music major now.</p>

<p>Yes, this is for next year. Thank you so much for your help fiddlefrog. I am more comfortable about this lineup now. :)</p>
