All of the performance requirements will be the same as CM Path A – memorization, numbers of pieces from different periods, technique and sight reading. The student will receive a certificate from the branch for the accomplishment.

We have only one room available for performance evaluations, thus it will be first come first serve only.

Theory tests are NOT conducted at this site.
