A few weeks ago I sent in a CD of myself into the Rome Festival hoping for the spot this summer. When I got a letter back from them, everything was dated 2004, the summer they are accepting me for. I found out this was correct because someone they were waiting on to get a recording to them finally did and that person accepted this summer's spot. My questions are...
1. Is it common for summer festivals to try to get instrumentalists for future summers?
2. What is a reasonable time (prior to summer) to give a response?
3. Might I expect this to possibly happen with other camps if I decide not to accept and audition for other camps next summer?

Any other information would be greatly appreciated
Just trying to get the downlow on how this all works
