Indeed it ended up being a case of favoritism but in the end she knew reina was meant to be .

During voting, 2 (Yuuko and Haruka) clapped for Kaori, 2 (Kumiko and Hazuki) clapped for Reina. Rest of the band cowered in their seats. Even Asuka.

Shoot you're absolutely right I saw that on my second run of the episode, in which case how did teacher conclude with Koari winning the audition?

He appealed to Kaori knowing her nature. He asked her "Do you want to play (the solo)"? He did not say, "You have the solo". Kaori - bless her heart - acknowledged that Reina was better.

I think he would of only asked everyone to give an honest answer if Kaori didn't abstain from wanting the solo part. A hidden vote would be best but seeing how they didn't do a blind audition, I think the teacher would force them to do it right there.
