Audition Recordings
Auditions will be submitted online using Festival Scores. Teachers may create their Director account and enter student profiles at any time. It is important that audition recordings are uploaded by the deadline (Central Time). Late entries cannot be accepted. Directors will need to activate the following tag in their Festival Scores account:

Audio Files
Auditions must consist of the following audio files. All files are required in order to "complete" an audition in Festival Scores. Incomplete entries will not be judged.
Music folders will be handed out in November at the Mini-Convention in Hays. Please be sure you or a representative from your school is available to pick up that folder. This will save time and money.

Thank you for doing what you do each and everyday in and out of the classroom. As music educators, we know what we do makes a difference and that our students need our encouragement to keep playing and keep improving. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
