Info for Current Students

Students giving degree recitals (MusB or MM) in Baird Recital Hall or Lippes Concert Hall electing to have their recitals recorded by the Department of Music must print, complete, and submit a Recital Recording Request Form. The form must be submitted to the Slee Recording Studio mailbox in the Department of Music General Office (220 Baird Hall, Buffalo, NY 14260) at least two weeks in advance of the recital date in order to ensure recording of a recital.

Please contact Christopher Jacobs, Director of Music Technology, to verify the availability of staff, student, and ensemble recital recordings. Due to contractual limitations, visiting artist recitals are not available.

Students may check out keys for rehearsal spaces from 220 Baird Hall between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. For more information, contact Melinda J. Wesolowski.

Students in the Department of Music can rent lockers on a yearly basis for a $20 fee.

Students in the Department of Music may reserve space in Baird Recital Hall or Lippes Concert Hall by contacting Concert Manager Philip Rehard.

For degree recitals, students may reserve space free of charge. To ensure that an appropriate time may be found, students must make a reservation in the semester prior to their recital. Reservations are typically 3 hours in duration, with an additional 2 hours allotted for a dress rehearsal several days in advance of the recital. Students are expected to provide the concert manager with a program for their concert at least two weeks in advance of their recital, or else bring their own printed copies to the event.

For other events, students may still reserve space in the concert hall but must pay a fee to be determined by the office of concert productions.
