Repertoire: |
Two pieces for unaccompanied solo, or solo with accompaniment. Selection of the repertoire is at the discretion of the teacher. Arrangements and transcriptions should only be used if no suitable age appropriate literature is available. No simplified arrangements will be accepted. It is the intention that the repertoire should be chosen from the solo literature for each respective instrument. |

Students are responsible for obtaining their own accompanists, and must list them on the registration form to avoid scheduling conflicts with other students using the same accompanist. Teachers may not accompany their own students. NJMTA will provide a recommended list of accompanists should you require one. |
