MASTER CLASSES

 

How to Register to Perform

Master classes are important Symposium events that are as valuable to the audience as to the students performing. This year’s symposium will feature five master classes, open to students of all levels (no audition required). Registration is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Please include $25 with your registration fee, and indicate on the registration form your TOP THREE choices for master classes.

 

Repertoire

You may prepare etudes, solos, or orchestral excerpts. Piano accompaniment is required for repertoire that includes piano. If you cannot bring your own accompanist, we will put you in touch with a pianist at OU, and you can make your own arrangements.
