What is the NYSSMA Solo Festival?
At the NYSSMA (New York State School Music Association) Solo Festival, students receive an appointment to perform a solo piece (chosen from the NYSSMA Manual Edition 33), play scales, and perform an additional, unprepared short piece of written music. Performers will play in front of one adjudicator and receive a written evaluation of their performance and a grade. Music will be prepared outside of school and a private music teacher is strongly recommended.
