English term or phrase: audition
"Members of the ensemble are chosen by ***audition*** from among the most skilled performers".
Audition heißt eigentlich "Hörprobe, Vorsingen, Vorsprechen".
Hier aber geht es um Tanzen.
Kann ich auch "Vortanzen" übersetzen? Denn darum geht es doch wohl.

agree  Sandra Becker: Fragt sich nur, warum es auf Englisch trotzdem 'audition' (von 'hören') heißt.../Darum gings mir ja gar nicht, es gibt ja auch beim Ballett Musik, ich hätte halt nur gedacht, da gäbe es noch was anderes - wie 'recital' beim Vortragen, oder so...
