Suggested Repertoire Lists

We realize it can be challenging to find music for your students to perform in events that are “Permission Required/Allowed,” especially when you aren’t even sure that they will be approved by the Permissions Chair. This section is intended to help create a smoother process for you by providing lists of music that has either previously been on the approved list, or has been granted permission to be used. These lists will be updated at various times, so that we continue to provide you as many options as possible. Not every “permission” event is represented here yet.

Submit a Permission Request Form

NOTE: When using music listed on the Suggested Repertoire List, you must complete a permission request form, but you do NOT need to include a copy of the music with the form. Simply check the box indicating you selected the music from here, and send the form.
