Dear Precollege Parents and Students,

Welcome back to the new school year! MSM’s Charles Myers Recording Studio will continue to offer audio and HD
video recording services to the Precollege Division for student and studio recitals, private recording sessions, and
institutional large ensemble concerts and performances. We hope this provides a valuable service to students
preparing video recordings for the college application process as well as material for upcoming competitions and
summer festivals.

HD video recording is available for private recording sessions and student or studio recitals that are scheduled in
Greenfield Hall, Miller Recital Hall, and Mikowsky Hall. Audio recording is available in Greenfield Hall, Miller Recital
Hall, Mikowsky Hall, Pforzheimer Hall, Myers Recital Hall, and the Bossi-Comelli Studio.

Myers Recording Studio is also expanding its large ensemble concert video recording service to include all of the
large ensemble concerts on the attached listing. Digital files and/or CD and DVD copies of these recordings are
available for purchase by submitting a Recording Copy Request Form to the Precollege Office, also included in
this packet.
