$130 for a Class 1 that performs
$65 for a Class 2 that performs
$30 for a Class 3 that performs
If the kid doesn't perform @ contest, I pay $40 for class 1's and $20 for Class 2 and 3.
The kids get at least 4 rehearsals for a class 1, 2 for a class 2, and 1 for a class 1. If we can squeeze in more (i.e. my applied music kids) we will. Playing for TSSEC was a separate expense.
I pay A LOT for accompaniment, but that's because I have fabulous accompanists who are current or former educators and they are a HUGE influence on my kids' success. Solos are a cornerstone of my program's development and I ensure that the kids have all the support I can give them.
That said, I am looking at switching to ensembles next year, because it's cheaper and our budget is decreasing.
