Everyone on this thread is so stressed and has gotten me a little worried as well!
Does anyone think it will hurt an audition if the accompanist hit a sour note in the intro to a song? It makes me cringe, but I guess my daughter didn’t feel comfortable asking the accompanist to redo it. Loved her performance otherwise. Common sense tells me it shouldn’t matter, but at least I can blame the accompanist if she doesn’t get anything.
I don’t think it should matter @choirsandstages. It wasn’t your daughter’s fault!
Thanks annamatisse–that’s my feeling too. I can’t imagine how hard it must be for adjudicators to get through all these videos and pare them down to the very few that make it. They do it incredibly quickly considering the huge volume. Waiting for Thursday…
GUYS LOOK AT THIS TWITTER UPDATE: https://twitter.com/YoungArts/status/666751797290213376
Someone just posted a Twitter update congratulating some finalists…
@choirsandstages Do you have a link to the update by any chance?
Guys, search “youngarts” on Twitter, there are a lot of posts congratulating finalists…
OMG, I found the posts! Here is the link to the YoungArts Twitter search. I hope they’ll be calling finalists tomorrow as well! Scroll down to see the posts:
Looking at the posts though, they all seem to be for dancers, so don’t fret yet!
Do they usually call or email?
@OhPearl I think they do both
loooooooorrrrrdddd im typically a chill person but this is stressing me tf out
i’m going to be so anxious in school tomorrow lmaooo
does anyone know youngarts’s phone number, by any chance?
Hate this! Why can’t they just publish a list
Lawwwdddd [-O< [-O< [-O<
I’m so confused. I’m assuming they’re emailing all the winners and I guess they may be still in the process? I’m amazed at how some people are posting that they know multiple finalists – what are the chances of that?
@choirsandstages I think there were multiple posts for the same people, so it only looked like a lot. So far, I haven’t seen any other social media updates about finalists so don’t worry! Hopefully tomorrow brings more good news
Hah…ok I guess I won’t give up just yet. But I’m braced for the disappointment.
