PERFORMANCE
Is photocopying allowed?
No. Only digital music is allowed with proof of purchase attached.
Can I photocopy a page turn?
No. A page turner would be necessary.
Does my piece have to be memorized?
It is always better if your piece is memorized. If your piece is not memorized you must provide a second original copy of the piece for the adjudicator's use.
Do I need extra copies of my music?
Yes, you need an extra original copy of music for the adjudicator as well as for any performers on stage.
How early should I be before my performance?
It is best to arrive at least five minutes before your session begins. We do our best to keep sessions on time. Having the music turned in to the front desk before the session begins helps greatly.
