A performance jury is essentially the 'final exam' for your private lessons. You will be asked to perform, for a faculty panel, selections from the repertoire you have been working on throughout the semester. Generally you are asked to supply the adjudicators with a list of the pieces you've been studying; you choose the first piece for your jury, and members of the panel will then ask for what they want to hear.
You are required to do a jury every semester that you are taking private lessons as a class.
Vocalists are expected to know the meaning of their lyrics.
