Updated Solo & Ensemble information is below:
2012 Solo and Ensemble Information
1. Solo and Ensemble Festival will be held at Kenmoor Middle School.
2. High school students will perform on Saturday, February 4th from 9 AM - 4 PM.
3. This year, the fees have changed. There is a $10.00 participation fee per student per event.
4. Students may participate in no more than 2 events - only one of which may be a solo.
5. All solos/ensembles that are published with a piano accompaniment MUST be accompanied or student will be penalized a full grade on the final score.
6. All students must present an original piece of music to the adjudicator with measures numbered. Failure to provide a copy for the judge will result in comments only. There is a substantial penalty for not having the original for the judge and it is illegal. If a piece of music is out of print, you must get permission from the publisher in order to legally make photocopies of it. Most publishers have very easy steps for obtaining permission that usually be done through e-mail. You must attach the publisher's permission to copy to the front of any photocopied music.
7. Music must be selected from the MBDA or MODA list. MMEA has a new website which is a great improvement. Please check music against the list carefully. The website is www.mmea-maryland.org
8. Attached is a recommendation of selected duet/trio/quartet music.
Please see me, Mr. Jiles, ASAP with any questions or concerns. The deadline to register with me is December 12, 2011 by the end of the school day.
