If a program was performed more than once, indicate on the top right-hand corner of the photocopy how many times it was performed. The ensemble name and concert date should be visible on each photocopy; you may include an indication of the concert location. Please be sure that your photocopies are highly legible. Please arrange programs in chronological order. Do not bind the programs in any way. 3. Clearly mark those pieces being submitted in consideration for the Alice Parker Award with an X in the left-hand margin of the photocopy. *Please note: A chorus that applies for the Adventurous Programming Award (in catgories #1 or #2) may not also apply for the Alice Parker Award in the same year. Choruses selected to receive the Adventurous Programming Award may not apply in future years for the Alice Parker Award, nor may choruses who have won the Alice Parker Award apply for the Adventurous Programming Award unless they can demonstrate that the chorus mission has changed.
