CMEA High School Audition Repertoire Jazz 4-Year Rotation (May, 2018) In order to ensure consistent and fair adjudication, all students must use the same edition of a given solo. Students must use the required edition of the books/pieces indicated. The publishers/distributors are listed to help you locate a given etude book or piece. CMEA expects all students participating in the audition process to abide by all copyright laws. Students must have an original piece of music, a digitally purchased copy w/receipt, a public domain copy, or perform from memory. With the exception of students performing from memory, students auditioning without an acceptable copy of music may be disqualified from festival participation. Students may audition in as many areas as they choose; however, vocal students may audition on one voice part only Soprano, Alto, Tenor, or Bass. Directors must submit their student s ensemble preference during registration; however, the final decision for ensemble placement rests with the appropriate festival committees. CMEA Policies Regarding Students With A Disability It is the responsibility of the child s music director to notify the Region Director of any modifications required for students who may have an Individualized Education Program (IEP) or 504 plan in anticipation of the CMEA sponsored Adjudication or Festival processes. Any request for modifications must be made 30 days prior to the said CMEA sponsored event. It is also the responsibility of the child s school district to fund any costs incurred by such modifications. Special thanks to Jay Stevens at Foundry Music in New Haven, CT for verifying this repertoire information and availability.
