ala breve


The HED recital was very successful last year, featuring chamber music. The focus this year will be works that are appropriate competition pieces for the high school student. These can be pieces from the ABA Approved Solo List, or in the case of vocal or piano, works that are appropriate for competitions such as MTNA. Please limit your selections to no more than 8 minutes. For a multi- movement work, you may only be able to perform a single movement. Applications will be on the HED link on the website. There are only 50 minutes available, so please apply early if you are interested. Please remember, that in order to perform, you must be a member of Nafme and be registered for the conference, your collaborators must be as well.
