Please plan work out your introduction!

1. Your name, and school
2. Title of your piece and the composer/arranger
3. Name of your accompanist
4. One unique/significant aspect of your piece

Musical Theater:

 This introduction should include:

performer name, accompanist name, name of school, title and composer of the selection to be performed. Instead of

describing a significant aspect of the piece, students will then set the scene by describing which character is singing the song,

why the character is singing the song, and to whom the song is being sung. Students may do this in character or as a narrative.

The introduction does not need to be memorized nor is it part of the overall rating.

Jim's Music is looking to expand our staff and is looking for your help.  We are looking for a high school student that would be able to work 4:00 - 7:00 a few days a week.  This would be a great opportunity for a student to see the "behind the curtains" workings of a music store.  If you have any students that are looking for work, have them stop in or contact us.
