#NYSSMA SCORING SHEET MANUAL#
The NYSSMA Manual is essentially a large list of acceptable pieces of music that can be played at a NYSSMA Festival. Any solo that is played at the Conference needs to be listed in the NYSSMA Manual and performed as listed. If you are also planning to audition for an All-State ensemble, you must play a Level 6 piece, along with all other requirements for the audition. NYSSMA Evaluation Festival solos are split into six levels of difficulty, with the 6th level being the most difficult (see our Grading page for a rough guide to what the levels mean). Choose a piece you will enjoy learning and that best fits your ability level. That is up to you and your music teacher. The solo festivals are also used to determine eligibility for the various All State ensembles. The purpose of the festivals is to provide evaluations of performances by independant judges. Solo festivals are held throughout New York State in the second semester. (See our Grading page for a rough guide to what the levels mean). NYSSMA (pronounced NISS-muh), is an acronym for "New York State School Music Association." NYSSMA maintains a large, comprehensive listing of solos, chamber ensembles and large ensembles (band, jazz band, orchestra, chorus) graded on a six level scale, with 6 being the highest.
