Procedure for selection of dates
All students will be asked to give first and second choice dates. These dates must be approved by the student’s applied instructor and accompanist on the recital/capstone proposal cover sheet.
Students must fill out the Degree Recital/Capstone Request Form, write a recital proposal, and submit to the Conservatory Office by the due date indicated on the form. Incomplete forms or forms without an accompanying recital proposal will not be accepted and will not be scheduled.
