2. Be able to perform at the designated/published tempo marks.  We will confirm the tempo markings after registration.

3. Implement the printed expression marks

4. Follow a conductor while playing

5. Make necessary changes based on the conductor’s instructions.

It is the teacher's responsibility to see that their performers are fully prepared.

As this is not an adjudicated event, music selections are intended to be accessible and entertaining to encourage more participation. Performers may select one or all of the pieces listed on the repertoire list.  In some cases, students may find themselves able or wanting to play in more than one grade. Performers, though, must be able to play at suggested performance tempo.
