If rehearsal time is available near the date of your recital and your requested time is approved, you will be given a maximum of two hours for your rehearsal. Only written e-mail requests from Students (not teachers) for dress rehearsal times will be accepted. Please request times through the assistant production manager.
  7. All senior and MFA recitals will be recorded for archival purposes only if you have paid the recording charge two weeks prior to your recital. There will be no exceptions. THE CONCERT WILL NOT BE RECORDED UNLESS YOU PAY THE CHARGE IN ADVANCE.

    The cost for recording is $75.00 for a CD. All Monies for recital recordings will be paid to “UC REGENTS” through the music department. The recordings can be ordered and purchased through the Music Office. Written permission from the Assistant Production Manager is required if you want to hire your own recording engineer.

Please refer to your Recital Support Form.
  10. Each Student giving a recital during the 05-06 school year is required to assist on two (2) recitals of their fellow student’s.
