Update on CTU 2008 Accompanied Performances

Accompanied Performances are performances that have predetermined accompanying instruments and artists. These performances are typically rendered by:

  • Six or less vocalists
  • Three or less identical instruments

Accompanied Performances will be scheduled in the Gupta Dining Hall in the AM on Sunday, 25th May 2008. CTU does not plan on serving food during the Accompanied Performance in the Gupta Dining Hall. CTU plans to make arrangements for a separate set of audio/video equipment to enhance the quality of the performance overall in the Gupta Dining Hall.

The CTU 2008 Registration Deadline is Friday, 18th Apr 2008.
