​Oregon ASTA

APPLICATION LINK IS AT BOTTOM OF PAGE

​

Oregon ASTA sponsors Showcase Recital to give a wide range of students from all over the state a chance to perform. Students of any age and level may apply, providing they study with a member of ASTA or are members themselves. Teachers are each limited to four students from their studio. We are interested in crafting a concert with all ages and levels, not just the most advanced. A maximum of two students from each teacher will be chosen to perform. 

​

Repertoire can be accompanied or solo. There is a 10 minute time limit; pieces longer than that will need to be cut if they are chosen for performance, and should be cut for the video. 

Applicants will be judged by how polished they are, not by book level. Judges will evaluate intonation, rhythm, technique, artistry, and tone quality. Memorization is not required, but a memorized performance may be considered more polished. There is no fee for entering or attending the recital. Showcase Recital performers will be selected from video recordings of the piece they wish to play and will be notified of acceptance by February 5th. Accompanists are recommended but not required for the video. Pieces with piano accompaniment must have a pianist at the recital (we can help you find one). ​
