GUIDELINES FOR STUDENT PERFORMANCE AND AUDIENCES
Standard concert etiquette entails appropriate behavior while viewing or performing a live musical performance. Good concert etiquette shows respect for the conductor, performers, other audience members, and the music that is being performed.
APPEARANCE
- Should be neat and in no way distract from the performance.
- Boys should wear a dress shirt, dress slacks and nice shoes; baggy pants and those that reveal underwear are not acceptable; avoid tennis shoes and baseball caps.
- Girls should wear a formal dress, skirt, or dress slacks; skirts and dresses should be knee-length when seated and without side slits.
- Tops should cover the midriff completely, no showing of cleavage; sheer/revealing garments are not appropriate.
- Dress shoes are preferred for recitals; flip-flops and similar casual styles are not appropriate.
- Jewelry that interferes or distracts should not be worn.
PERFORMANCE
- Take time to prepare before performing. Adjust the bench to a suitable position. Use the correct pedal. Think of the music you will perform before engaging.
- No candy or gum chewing while performing.
- Remain expressionless if errors occur.
- If memory lapses occur, try to go on, skipping ahead if necessary. Do not keep up fruitless efforts if recall is gone. Simply exit as gracefully as possible.
- No unnecessary movements of mouth, head, hands, etc.
- If reading a piece, store all sheet music in a black binder.
- If more than one number is performed, take adequate time between pieces.
CONCERT ETIQUETTE
- Out of respect to the audience and performers: refrain from flash photography and mute all electronic devices.
- All performers and/or parents must stay for the entire duration of the recital to support other performers.
- When exiting the concert, please do so between performances.
- Please hold your applause until the conclusion of each performance.
IN ADDITION
- Arrive early to the venue to get situated before the performance.
- If a student would like to play on the performance piano ahead of time, please make arrangements with the facility to schedule a time to do so. This will have to be on a day prior to the actual performance or recital. This is not to be done while the audience is gathering.
