Off-Campus Ensemble Performances

Approval

• Department Chair approval is required well in advance of making off-campus performance arrangements. Submit a proposal that addresses the following items:

1. 1. Date/Time/Location of the event
   2. Estimated costs (i.e. venue rental, equipment needs, etc)
   3. Arrangements for ticketing and ticket revenue

• University purchasing approval is required for any contracts with venues. Submit contracts to the department manager at least 2 months before the event date.

Ticketing

• Performances should be accessible to music majors and department faculty free of charge.
• Ticket prices should match the department’s charging structure whenever possible – $5 tickets for UNC students and $10 general admission tickets.
• A plan must be in place and approved by both the chair and department manager for collecting monetary proceeds from a performance. Proceeds are deposited into the music department concert series account and treated as part of the department’s performance and events operating budget.

Liability

• Directors are responsible for ensuring that all legal rights and permissions are obtained for the public performance of repertory in off-campus venues and must supply appropriate documentation to the department manager and chair upon request.
