What happens next? A panel represent-
ing past All State and Region Conductors, retirees and members of our State Executive Boards will review the submitted materials. The rubric scoring criteria is found on the bottom of the application. NO DISCUS- SION is shared about any of the materials submitted. This process is designed to insure a fair and equitable treatment of all materials received. Once the videos have been reviewed, all additional paperwork is read and assessed. All rubrics are collected, scores tallied and the lowest score wins. We use the same nu- meric scoring system as in the NJ All-State Chorus auditions.
The Chairperson does not partici- pate in the scoring, but acts to organize the packets, give process direction to the com- mittee members and provides the results to the Choral Procedures Committee. The Chairperson does not share any informa- tion regarding the materials submitted and the panel is requested to keep their reviews confidential. To date, this system has worked with great success.
