Aside from perhaps your experience at USC, why do you think it's silly? Why do you suppose they might be interested in concert tuning experience? Certainly it couldn't hurt to have a proven track record of being able to tune well enough for pianists in a concert situation. I agree that a tuning audition might be a bit silly unless there is somebody on the search committee who actually knows something about tuning.

I don't know how the impression that the CAUT committee's position "starts and ends with the quality of a concert tuning" but I just want to set the record straight here. Eric, Speaking out of turn, Israel might have been referring to university faculties' judgement of a candidate based on his/her concert experience and tuning audition. If you want to get noticed by a university piano tech search committee, there better be some impressive looking concert experience on your resume. I, myself, find that to be silly.
