Hi Paul! I didn't realize they had been released, either. (since I don't teach, I don't keep up with these things) After I read your post, though, I thought I'd buzz by tmea.org and see what the selections were this year, just for fun. It's a funny coincidence that they picked my favorite speedy etude (Rose #26) this year.

It looks like the TMEA audition format is pretty much the same as it was when I was in school with three Rose etudes/studies. At the high school level, they didn't make us play scales, though, and I don't know if they do now. (Or maybe that's a area-by-area or region-by-region requirement...I have no idea.)

It looks like the NY format is perhaps a little bit more like our solo/ensemble contests where you play one piece and get a numerical score (and, I assume, a critique sheet or scoring sheet as well).
