“Words can't express how thankful I am to have used Sharon Sparrow's book, "6 Weeks to Finals," which resulted in me winning the 2nd Flute position with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. This method helped me to feel more confident than ever, knowing that I had prepared in every conceivable way. Sharon's triathlon approach guides the reader through meticulous practice routines, numerous mock auditions, and the often undervalued component of mental training. The latter component especially helped me to overcome an emotional attachment to the job, resulting in three rounds of auditions, a trial week, and a job offer with the DSO. I cannot praise Sharon's book enough!”
