718: Brendan Fitzgerald on audition prep

https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/contrabassconversations/718_-_Brendan_Fitzgerald.mp3

Brendan Fitzgerald has come up with an audition preparation strategy that has upped his level of consistency.  Brendan joined the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra in 2019 after spending two seasons with the Seattle Symphony, and he is set to do a trial with the Minnesota Orchestra.

We talk through his audition prep method extensively, and we also feature excerpts from Brendan that he recorded while preparing an audition tape.  Enjoy, and be sure to also check him out on this recent podcast by Ryan Beach.
