Recital Recording Policy

1. All faculty, student and guest artist recitals are recorded by advance request only. For requests honored with less than two weeks notice, add $20 late fee. It is recommended that you make your recital recording requests as soon as your recital date and location are confirmed. Recitals are recorded based on staff availability. It is especially important to get your requests in early for end-of-semester recitals.
2. Go to room 226 Music Building to fill out a Recital Recording Request Form; or, print the form yourself online and turn it into the Recording Services mailbox in Music Office 102 MB.
3. Prior to your recital, you will need to provide a program with timings for each selection.
4. Please inform Recording Services immediately of any change in time or location of your recital. For less than 24 hours notice, you will be charged a $40 fee.
5. You will be contacted by e-mail when your order is ready.
6. It is your responsibility to listen to your recording and notify Recording Services of any problems immediately. Recording Services will hold the digital master of your recital for 14 days after the order is picked up. After this time period, digital masters will be erased.
7. Recitals in the Music Auditorium are recorded using the suspended microphone pair as standard procedure. Custom microphone setups are available upon request.

• DAT (Digital Audio Tape)
• Compact Disc
