![]() ![]() Levels V and VI are scored from 0 to 100. For example, on Level V and VI String Solos, "Tone" is worth 20 points, "Intonation" 10, "Technique" 20, "Accuracy" 15, "Interpretation" 20, "Scales" 5, and "Sight reading" 10.Įach of the judging categories are allotted a set points out of the total. NYSSMA provides sight reading passages of all six levels from a proprietary manual. Scale requirement depends on level as well. Levels I and II require knowledge of three scales, III and IV require seven scales, and V and VI require all major scales. In levels I-IV, the performer can choose the scales they have prepared on the evaluation sheet. During the performance and evaluation, the judge would choose three scales at random among the expected set for the performer to play.

Also, the soloist must perform a "long roll" for snare drum. ![]() For Levels I and II, the soloist must perform a long roll without speeding up and slowing down.
