personnel.

in only one group. Students auditioning for more than one group (except for
winds applying for band or orchestra) or on more than one instrument must
include a separate tape and fee for each. Applications must clearly indicate
that more than one application is being submitted and show the student's
preference.
6. Students must represent the actual school they attend (ninth graders in
junior high cannot apply through the local high school music teacher).
