Welcome to the official blogspot of Julie Ann Link.
My Project Overview
My goal while living in Switzerland this year is to better understand American and European orchestral audition systems. As the year progresses, I hope to share video interviews with professional musicians, conductors, orchestra committee members, and students. I also intend to discuss my personal observations, experiences, and opinions of the orchestra audition procedures in Europe. I will post pictures and provide questions for open discussions.
This is my first post in my blogging attempts to document my time as a Fulbright Scholarship recipient in Zürich, Switzerland (2011-2012)! I have spent the past couple of weeks familiarizing myself with the city. I begin studies as a graduate student at the Zürcher Hochschule der Künst on September 19! I will work intensely with Matthias Racz, solo bassoonist of the Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich.
Thanks for reading!
