well, I'm back...feeling pretty exhausted right now, so just a brief summary:
I did not get the job. I dind't play as well today as I did last time so that's not really such a big surprise.
They did offer me time-contract which I'll take if I don't get anything definite in the near future.
It's a 50% job as well, which would leave me time for practising but it also means less money of course.
The reason why i'm actually considering this position is, that having the "Gewandhausorchester Leipzig" in the curriculum vitae should pretty much guarantee more invitations in the future...
I've also received another invitation, unfortunately it's only for a limited-time contract (I didn't read that properly when I applied there apparently...) but I might go there anyway and play for the job since it's also a big house and it would be a 100% job (even if only limited-time) and would of course pay better...
Tomorrow I'll go pick up the violin (finally) and I hope it's really as good as I remembered, and then I'll go back to practising for the next audition...*sigh*
I'd really like a holiday sometime soon...
Oh BTW...this is the website of the violinist I met and befriended on the way to Leipzig on the preliminary audition last week:
