Taught by renowned violinist
David Kim
No conversation about orchestral auditions is complete without reference to “Don Juan”! We need not approach it the same as Strauss’s other heavy tone poems; it’s actually much more of a light excerpt. David Kim’s annotations, bowing tips, and insight into musicality can take some of the stress off this imposing work. He ends with a discussion of technique and what’s required for those interested in working with a major orchestra.
