Instrumental Studies Resources Page Welcome! This page is intended for use by current students in the Department of Instrumental Studies, and contains information we hope you find useful during your time at Boyer. The information found here is located in other documents such as the University Undergraduate and Graduate Bulletins, Boyer and Department Handbooks, but this page is a resource for the most pertinent departmental information. As always, please feel free to contact a member of the department if you have any questions.

It is not meant to replace any College or University publications. Those publications (Undergraduate Bulletin, Graduate Bulletin and college Undergraduate and Graduate handbooks) will contain information on additional topics as well as more detailed information on some of the issues covered in the department guidebook; the University Bulletins are the official word on matters of policy. Department of Instrumental Studies Guide for Department Students (PDF)recital proceduresThe college procedures are outlined in detail here. Please read it very carefully. There are many deadlines, and missing any of them can cause real problems. What you need to know about procedures in this department for graduation recitals: Prior to performing their degree recital you must turn in a Recital Permission Form (this is a separate form than the permission form required to simply schedule the recital). This form is where the studio teacher indicates your level of preparedness for the recital and is due six weeks prior to your recital (or two weeks before the end of the fall semester if your recital is in the first five weeks of the spring semester). It is imperative that this form be completed on time. Failure to turn it in when due will result in the postponement or cancellation of the degree recital. In the event a recital permission jury is requested by the studio teacher (one of the options on the form), it must take place four weeks prior to the degree recital in question. This jury must consist of the repertoire that will be performed at the recital with the accompanist that will be performing the recital. (For wind players, if chamber music is to be performed on the recital, it does not need to be performed at this jury, although it may; chamber music selections should be coached by the primary lesson teacher). If the performance at the recital approval jury is deemed to be insufficiently prepared, the department reserves the right, after discussion with the private teacher, to request an additional approval jury and/or postpone the recital. Students will be notified within twenty-four hours regarding the outcome of the recital permission jury. When appropriate, the instrumental jury prior to the degree recital semester may be used as the recital permission jury, although extra jury time must be allotted for this purpose.
