The honors audition is a competitive event, open to piano, instrumental, and voice students at the district and state levels. The program was designed to encourage students to study, prepare, and present recital caliber repertoire in a polished performance. Participants have the opportunity to perform before qualified judges who provide careful and constructive criticism.
Students enter in one of five levels based on their age. There is also a collegiate level. Entrants must be studying with a teacher who is a member in good standing of PMTNM. Non-PMTNM members may enter students with an extra fee added to both the District and State Honors Audition fees. Repertoire and general rules are shown in the Student Activities section of the Handbook. District NE-I includes Santa Fe, Los Alamos, Taos, Las Vegas, and surrounding areas. 1st-Place winners from each district advance to the state honors audition, so students who accept the first place award must be able to play at the state competition. Otherwise, they will forfeit their award. For more information, you can check the latest news on the PMTNM website, read about the rules in the Student Handbook, or contact Haewon Yang, District NE-I Vice President. |
