VIRTUOSO PIECES
Students who choose to perform virtuoso selections from our repertoire lists,

have the opportunity to receive up to 5 additional points.​

 

SHEET MUSIC ORIGINALS
It is the responsibility of the performer to obtain original copies of the
piece they are performing.  Students must bring an original copy and
1 photo copy (for the adjudicator to reference) to their adjudication performance.  

 

Vocalists who choose to perform a piece memorized only need to bring the original copy for the adjudicator.   Copies may be used in place of originals ONLY in the case that a piece is free domain OR a student has purchased a digital copy of the music and has proof of purchase (usually printed on the music)
 

PUBLISHERS

Publishers listed are only suggestions. Students may choose to perform music from a publisher of their choice, however, they piece should be equivalent to the standard listed on our site.  Students who perform easier/simplified arrangements will not be eligible for the concert festival but are still encouraged to perform.

​​

REPERTOIRE CHOICES FOR MULTIPLE YEARS/AUDITIONS

Students may not perform the same piece for the NEMFA Solo & Ensemble adjudication that they have performed previously. This is true regardless of whether or not they were selected for the concert festival.
 

 Additionally, students may not use the same piece for multiple instrumental adjudications 
(ex. a student may not perform the eccles sonata on alto, tenor and bari saxophone
giving them three opportunities but only preparing one piece.)
