ELIGIBILITY

Any high school or college ensemble may enter. All ensemble members must be full-time students at the high school or college they are represent-ing. No junior high, district wide, independent, or combined ensembles comprised of members from different high schools or colleges are eligible.

First place winners from the past three consecutive years are not eligible to compete.

The Percussive Arts Society requires all ensembles to document copyright law compliance. Please complete the Copyright Clearance form including the composer, arranger, and copyright owner for each selection to be performed, even if you own the copyright. If you are performing an arrangement of a copyrighted work, submit the Request for Permission to Arrange form to the copyright holder. Please note that the copyright holder is not always the composer of the work. Completed forms must be submitted to Percussive Arts Society by October 10, 2010. Without this documentation on file, ensembles will not be allowed to perform at the PASIC 2010 Marching Festival.

INSTRuMENTATION

Instrumentation is limited to those instruments typically utilized and recognized as part of a percussion section. Also allowed are electronic instru-ments recognized as normal stage band rhythm section instruments. Conventional wind and/or string instruments (other than string bass and guitar) may not be used. Single tone, non-keyed horns (i.e. whistles, sirens, animal calls, etc.) may be used only if generating an effect, and may not be used in any melodic form. No pre-recorded music or pre-recorded audio effects may be used. All electronically produced sound must be generated in “real time” by a performing member. The use of sequences or any sequenced, copyrighted material is not allowed. The generation of any electronic sound must be triggered by an implement or hand striking the key, instrument, or pad of the instrument producing the rhythmic sound.

If an electronic mixing board is used, only student personnel may operate it. No communicating devices may be used in order to assist the mixing board operator, and it must be placed within the performance area along with any other amplification equipment.

SELECTION OF PARTICIPANTS

Due to schedule restraints, the number of ensembles in each category is limited. Entries will be accepted in order by the date and time in which the completed registrations with full payment are received. In the event that there are fewer than three applicants in each category, participants may perform for exhibition only (to be determined by Contest Director.) The copyright clearance and registration forms must be completed and returned to the Percussive Arts Society by October 10, 2010. Participants will be notified of acceptance via e-mail. Performance positions will be determined by the date and time the entry forms are received. In the event that three or more entry forms are received on the same date regardless of time, performance position will be determined by random draw at the Percussive Arts Society office. The performance schedule will be posted on the PASIC website the first week of November.

ENTRY LIMITSWe will accept the first 20 ensembles that send in their completed registration with full payment. There will be 5 slots for each category (College: Marching & Standstill and High School: Marching & Standstill). After each of the 5 slots have been filled, a waiting list for each category will be created for the first 3 ensembles that have submitted registration. If all categories are not filled after October 10, additional slots will be created for those categories which have a waiting list (up to the maximum of 20 total ensembles). Each ensemble on the waiting list will be notified after October 10, 2010 as to its status. Please remember that a category must have a minimum of 3 ensembles to be classified as a competition.

RuLES

Each ensemble is responsible for providing their own equipment. PAS does not provide storage for instruments. All equipment and props must be placed anywhere within the performance area. The front sideline is inviolate at all times (this includes all sound equipment) except during set up and tear down. No motorized vehicles, pyrotechnics, discharge of arms, pressurized canisters, dangerous materi-als, inflammable liquids or animals will be permitted in or around the performance area. Smoke machines will not be allowed. Electrical (plug-in or battery operated) or compressed air apparatuses, including lights, lasers, and flash cubes (electrical or chemical) will not be allowed. Amplification

can be used in the performance area by performers playing musical instruments, singing or voice. The electrical source for electronic instruments must be a 115/120v typical wall outlet. Car/truck type wet batteries cannot be used. The only batteries that will be allowed are “off the shelf” type flashlight batteries. Gasoline, electric, or manual powered generators will not be allowed. Lighting cannot be turned off in the performance area by an ensemble and use of auditorium/stage lighting will be prohibited.

Time Limits of Performance High School Performance: 4–7 minutes College Performance: 4–8 minutes

Maximum time allowed on the performance area: Each high school unit will have an interval time of 11 minutes. This 11 minute interval includes set up, the minimum to maximum performance time requirements, breakdown, and the removal of all members and equipment from the perfor-mance area. Each college unit will have an interval time of 12 minutes. This 12 minute interval includes set up, the minimum to maximum perfor-mance time requirements, breakdown, and the removal of all members and equipment from the performance area.

For the purpose of interpretation, the “performance area” will be indoors and measures 90’ x 60’ with the front sideline and centerline clearly marked. Side and real boundaries shall be the entire floor and surrounding area and shall be called the performance area. Depending on the cur-rent year’s venue, a diagram (floor plan) will be sent to all competing units to identify the performance area. For PASIC 2010 the performance area will measure 90’ x 60’. Carpeting will not be provided. Groups may use a tarp/flooring if they have such and may place it on the floor and take it up within the prescribed time limits.

For High Schools Only: A student or drum major may conduct the ensemble within the performance area. He/She may not violate the front boundary at any time. Podiums or platforms may be used, but must be placed on the performance floor.

Standstill Only: All the aforementioned performance rules apply to the standstill competition except that all units will play from a stationary posi-tion. Ensembles may reset in between tunes without being penalized. Please note that credit will not be given for any movement.

PERFORMANCEAny equipment or props may be placed within the performance area by anyone prior to the start of competition.

The ensemble will line up at a ready line to be designated by the Contest Director. From this point, the unit should move directly and immediately into the performance area. They may set up anywhere in the performance area. This set up is not judged. However, remember that the set up and tear down are being timed. After the set up is complete and judges are ready, the announcer will say: “Joining us from (City, State) the (Ensemble Name) Percussion Ensemble under the direction of (Directors’ Name).”

Exit may be over any line except the front sideline.

All personnel, equipment, and/or props must be out of the performance area at the conclusion of the interval time. For purpose of timing, equip-ment and props are considered removed when they have been moved across either the middle vertical or horizontal line which is to be designated by the timing and penalty judge depending on the venue and contest flow. After the equipment/props have crossed this line, they must be removed from the area immediately and taken to an area designated by the Contest Director. Failure to remove equipment and props to the designated area in a timely manner is subject to a penalty at the discretion of the Contest Director.

FORMATWe will use a competitive format (with actual scores announced) for the competition. There will be no festival format. Groups wishing to perform in a non-competitive format should enter the Interactive Clinic format on Friday morning.

In the case of a numerical tie for first place, the school with the most first place votes will be declared the winner. If it is still a tie, whoever has the highest execution/performance marks will be declared the winner.

of three or more ensemble members. Read below for more details.

Interactive Clinic

DESCRIPTIONThe Interactive Clinic is a non-competitive clinic format where two accom-plished and experienced clinicians (1 marching specialist and 1 from the world of percussion) will evaluate your group’s performance and work with your students for up to 30 minutes. Unlike most events, you do not have to bring your full ensemble. You can bring any combination of performers from your marching percussion section. There are no scores or order of finish, just an opportunity to have outstanding clinicians provide your students with an educational experience that will help them develop their musicianship through performance. Interactive Clinics will take place from 9:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m. on Friday, November 12, 2010.

ELIGIBILITYEach participating ensemble must have 3 or more members to participate. All ensemble members must be full-time students at the high school or college they are representing.

If your ensemble is registering for the Marching and Standstill Competition and you would like to add the Interactive Clinic to your schedule, you may simply select the Interactive Clinic on the Registration form and include the additional $100 performance fee with your Marching and Standstill Compe-tition registration fee.

ENTRY LIMITSWe will accept the first 10 ensembles that register.

RuLESEach ensemble may perform director’s choice of: cadences, exercises, grooves, halftime show music, sections of competition music, etc. Each ensemble does not need to bring a full percussion section.
