Ralph Vaughan Williams – i.e. his last name is NOT Williams) Name of Arranger or Transcriber Some works are transcriptions of other composer’s works. i.e. Many Baroque works have been rewritten for another instrument. Figured bass realizations sometimes have the transcribers name listed. Please supply all names involved in your composition. Composer’s Birth and Death years To the best of your ability and online or paper sources, determine the years of your composer’s birth and death. Catalogue information Sometimes a composer will publish several pieces together, which is called an opus (work). Please list opus numbers and their individual numbers also. e.g. Opus 5 No. 3 would refer to collection 5, the third piece in that collection. Some works are referred to by the person who catalogued the works – please read on  Johann Sebastian Bach works are referred to by their BWV or Bach Werke Verzeichnis numbers after the catalogue by Wolfgang Schmieder.  Marc Antoine Charpentier's works are referred to by the H or Hitchcock numbers after Hugh Wiley Hitchcock .  Joseph Haydn's works are referred to by their Hob or Hoboken numbers after Anthony van Hoboken's 1957 classification.  Franz Liszt's works are referred to by their S or Searle numbers after Humphrey Searle's 1960s classification.  Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart works are referred to by their K or Köchel numbers, after Ludwig von Köchel.

Duration of performance in this format: 4:33 This information is vital to ascertain the length of a whole recital. 4:33 would translate to 4 minutes and 33 seconds. I have read the MUS 1010 textbook “Head to Toe” and have submitted my paper as required by the class syllabus. You should have submitted your paper to the department secretary, Robert Butler, at least one week before your scheduled recital. Please do not be offended if you are asked not to perform on the recital for failing to do this. Those dressed inappropriately will be asked NOT to perform on the recital. This is a music recital. Dress accordingly. If in doubt, ask your private instructor. Exceptions are made for musical theatre pieces which require costumes. Stage directions for your performance Here you will list ANY detail you need taken care of by Mr. Arsenault and his marvelous stage crew. Some common items are listed below, but it is not complete and does not cover every situation. Think through your performance completely when filling out this section.  Piano lid height (full for soloists, mini peg or short peg for accompanying) ask your instructor if in doubt  Number of chairs and their placement

 Number of stands (include stands for other purposes i.e. stand for trumpet mutes, oboe reeds, two stands to facilitate page turns etc. etc. etc.)  Please do not ask for special lighting during student recitals. Save this for your Sophomore Recital.  Amps, microphones, extension chords etc. etc. etc. Some jazz pieces require sound reenforcement  Drums – percussionists usually assist in this set up due to the complexity in positioning their instruments.  Foot rests for guitarists can be carried on by stage hands. Again not an exhaustive list, but you get the idea. Again, think through your performance.
