I heard there was a superfinal round, in which all 4 candidates were awarded spots (3 first violins, 1 second violin). In addition to Vivian Kukiel, I heard the other winnners were Melody Ye Yuan (section violin, San Diego Symphony), Weilu Zhang (section violin, St Louis Symphony), and Katherine Woo (assistant principal 2nd, NJ Symphony).
I've been told by a reliable source that it was actually Weilu Zhang of the St Louis Symphony who won one of these positions, rather than Wei Lu of CCM as listed above

Any news about this audition?
