i'm in both orchestras at my school, symphony and concert, symphony obviously being tha better of tha two. it has always been that if an upper and a lower classman are competing for tha same chair, it goes to tha upper classmen, because well obviously theyre tha upper classman and they wont be here for as long as tha lower classman. im perfectly fine with being a second violin for symphony orchestra because i know that im not as good as tha first violins, but it REALLY bothers me that i sit in tha very back and there are people that sit in front of me that should actually sit behind me and im not just saying this because i am a senior and so that obviously makes me tha upperclassman but becuase im a better player than these people. some people are just saying this because they think that i dont like my stand partner, but thats not true.
in concert orchestra i sit 4th chair first violin, but tha three kids that are in front of me are all sophmores, and only one of them should be sitting where she is in tha setup because she is an amazing violinist. tha other two arent that great and im a better player but my teacher doesnt really like me so she looks past my playing ability and looks at tha fact that she doesnt like me.
another thing that gets to me is that there are people who are in symphony who shouldnt and there are kids in concert that should be moved up to symphony, because they are just that good. and it bothers me even more that most of tha kids in orchestra this year arent there for tha music but just because its an "easy A".....does anyone else see whats wrong with this
