    Every Spring there is a NYSSMA Solo Festival. At the Solo and Ensemble Festivals, students have the opportunity, alone, or in a small group, to perform a piece of music that is selected from the NYSSMA Manual. The music is listed in six levels according to difficulty. Students play or sing before an adjudicator and are evaluated on their performance. If you are interested in learning a solo and playing it ofr an adjudicator, the signups are in January. Let your teacher know you are interested.
