In the 1980s, the most important orchestras in the United States grew tired of seeing that, at auditions, musicians who had been pupils of the orchestra conductors were too often hired, giving very little opportunity to the rest of the candidates. So they began to revive a practice that the Boston Symphony Orchestra had already adopted almost twenty years earlier. They simply put a black curtain in front of the candidate, so that it was impossible to tell who was playing. What's interesting about this measure is that it produced an unexpected side effect: the percentage of women who made it through to the final selection round increased significantly, between 30% and 50%, just because of this curtain. In fact, partly thanks to the introduction of this measure, the percentage of female musicians in these orchestras has increased from 5% in the 1970s to nearly 40% today.
