Tomorrow, Andrew has a chair test in band to determine who gets to sit in first chair. First chair is important because it means you're the best in your section. It also gets you "first part" in a performance which consists of higher, more difficult, notes. It also means you could possibly land a solo during a performance. He practiced for two hours today on his test song, the first section (Basse-Danse) of "Capriol Suite" by Peter Warlock. (Don't ask me what any of those words mean.) He thought it was a pretty easy piece so feels he'll do well.
