My DD (9 years old) is now interested in JD (RAM, RCM, or Guildhall), but I am aware that the application deadline is coming up and I wonder if it is worth considering. She is a violinist with ABRSM Grade 4 (distinction). She has been working on the Grade 5 pieces since last summer. She is just a normal girl (definitely not a prodigy), but once won the highest prize for the whole strings department at one of the county music festivals.
I wonder if it is worth trying although it is a very last minute idea, and if so, would it be appropriate for her to play grade 5 pieces at auditions? Or are there any typical pieces candidates play?
I would appreciate any advice, as this is something we have never done before. Thanks!
