Soloists or small ensembles may play a prepared selection of their choice for applause and comments. Selections should be by a Renaissance composer, preferably Italian, and should be from 3 to 8 minutes in length. Please provide a score. Pre-registration including the names of players and their instrument, the composer and title of selection and an approximate timing is required.
