Steps to Select a Solo
Look through the Filing Cabinet for Solos that we already have.
Find professional recordings and listen through the music while following along.
Critically listen, and decide whether or not you: 1) like the piece of music; 2) if you are capable of performing it with the amount of practice time that you have; 3) you believe you will grow as a musician from practicing and performing it.
Look up on the UIL Prescribed Music List (PML) to make sure that the piece is approved. https://www.uiltexas.org/pml/
Double-Check the PML and make sure that composer, arranger, and publisher are correct.
Fill out this Form :)
Put the music back!
