NYSSMA MANUAL 32 Piano (Current Edition)
Below, please find the list of pieces I regularly use for Level 1,2 NYSSMA (Current Edition)
Titles listed in collections may also be published separately.
I tried to list all correct editions - in some cases like in case of composer Gurlitt - these are harder to obtain, they are part of public domain and having a pdf copy should be technically allowed but because some NYSSMA judges might be confused I would recommend choosing something else from this extensive list.
