- Collaborative pianists may only play for 15 entries. One student in one category = ONE entry.
- A collaborative pianist's name must be entered when registering students. A drop-down list of previous years' pianists will appear in AuditionWare. You may enter the name and contact info of a new pianist if necessary. If using a previously listed pianist, please update their information if needed.
- Students or their teachers are responsible for providing scores for pianists at the Auditions that are copyright compliant. This means:
- Hard copies of books or scores
- Music purchased and downloaded for personal use (from "musicnotes.com" for example) with the acknowledgement visible on the pages
- Musical scores downloaded from IMSLP
Can a pianist play from a iPad or tablet?
YES! The use of iPads and tablets at all levels of NATS auditions is permitted. A pianist may use a personal tablet to display a stored electronic version of sheet music. The same standards of copyright as for any other musical score apply, and the singer and pianist must affirm that they are in compliance with the NATS Copyright Policy.
