Episode 41. Preparing Your Sheet Music PART 1: First Page of Your Cut & Binder Best Practices
/Learn the 6 pieces of information that MUST be on the first page of your audition cut.
Do you worry the accompanist won’t play your song the right way?
Well, worry no longer, friend.
In this 2-part series, I’m going to tell you exactly how to mark your sheet music so that the accompanist has all the information they need to play well and in sync with YOUR version of the song.
Today’s episode is a detailed run-down of what needs to go on the first page of your audition cut.
For most of us, we’re starting our song somewhere in the middle of the song, right? Well, there’s a ton of information that the accompanist needs to know that is ONLY ON THE FIRST PAGE of the music.
So, you need to transfer this information to the page you’re starting on.
I’ll also cover best practices surrounding binder choice and the age-old question: to use sheet protectors or not?
If you need a refresh on the industry standards for preparing your audition sheet music OR if you are completely new to this, then pull up a chair and press play! Let’s get into it!
