Rob Knopper

it would be sacrilege to use capital letters when writing about auditionhacker founder rob knopper.

rob plays percussion in the metropolitan opera orchestra. which is quite cool.

but rob also started auditionhacker, a site devoted to mastering the systems and processes required to win an audition.

we talk about:

  • rob’s own auditioning experiences
  • his super-cool practice journal system
  • how to advance at an orchestra audition 101 (rob’s free mini-course)
  • the audiitonhacker formula (8 module course)

this was a great conversation!  you’ll walk away loaded with new strategies for your next audition!
