Rules

  1. Students must be current on all lessons and payments for the year.
  2. Each entry in the bag requires that the student learn FIVE NEW SCALES at their level, which is determined by their teacher. The slowest acceptable tempo is quarter note = 60, playing quarter notes.
  3. Scales must be performed by memory. Note names must be said aloud unless the teacher determines the tempo of the scale prevents it or unless performing on a wind instrument.
  4. Students must perform in the April recital.
  5. Each student must memorize one song between the March and April recitals. 
  6. The drawing will be at the close of April’s 1:30 recital. All students who participated in the ASTA Bag Competition should strive to attend the 1:30 recital and drawing.
