Carol Jantsch, Principal Tuba of the Philadelphia Orchestra joins us on Behind the Screen to talk about her experience with taking, and winning, her audition with the Philadelphia Orchestra – while she was still in college!! As we’ve heard before from other guests, she wasn’t invited the first time. How did she win? Carol lets us in on what she works on with her students who are preparing for auditions, and their routines. We talk about being on the other side of the screen, what it is she’s listening for when someone is playing, how playing is a physical activity, and how to take care of your body. Oh yeah, winds and brass players, get molds of your teeth. Tune in to find out why.
