We have updated all of the solo instrumental and vocal categories as of September 30th. We are currently working on updating the instrumental ensemble categories. You can readily tell if a section is updated by looking at the dates on that sections page. The new Manual covers the years 2018-2021, and updated pages will show these years. There have been many changes from the old Manual, some quite significant (Edition Musicus is back, for one). Most of the classics are still there, but a few have been retired, so be careful. This website is a sub-set of the complete Manual and is not guaranteed to be 100 perfect and is not inclusive of all stipulations (such as movements to be performed, vocal keys, cuts, etc.).

The first number stands for Flute, the second for Oboe, the third for Clarinet, the fourth for Bassoon, and the fifth (separated from the woodwinds by a dash) is for Horn.

These are linked to their respective principal instruments with either a d if the same player doubles the instrument, or a if an extra player is required.

This is a special instrumentation adopted and perfected by the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble. It consists of the forces 414.01, and often includes Percussion andor Tympani. In addition, there are often doublings in the Trumpet section. While this instrumentation has come to be common, it is still not Standard as many Brass Dectets use very different forces, most often with more Horns than PJBE. The first number stands for Violin, the second for Viola, the third for Cello, and the fourth for Double Bass. Thus, this string quartet is for 2 Violas and 2 Cellos, rather than the usual 2110.
