MUSIC MARKING / CANDIDE CUTS / CHANGES TO ORDER OF PROGRAM

Candide is a rental-please make necessary markings in pencil as lightly as possible!  When preparing your music with the cuts/skips/order changes, please avoid writing “CUT” or “SKIP” in your music or crossing-out omitted sections. Instead, try Post-It notes (for written instructions and to indicate page skips) and paperclips (to section off skipped portions of music).  Thank you!

Use these specific instructions to prepare your Candide part; the complete order-of- program will be included in your folder as a definitive reference.

2)     CUT #2b and 2c
