ESM Practice Room Policies

  • The Registrar’s Office does not provide set up of chairs or stands for rehearsals. Student ensembles should plan to provide their own folding stands.
  • Room availability is extremely limited during certain times of the day and certain weeks of the year. Please be aware that there may not be any space available at your preferred time.
  • Requests for the Eastman Theatre, Kilbourn Hall, Hatch Recital Hall, Ray Wright Room, Howard Hanson Hall, Ranlet Lounge, and Ciminelli Lounge should be made via the Concert Office.
  • Note that if your event requires technical support, such as laptop & projector or recording equipment, you must arrange this separately with ESM Technology and Media Production.
  • Students may schedule a practice/rehearsal room using V-EMS, no more than one week in advance. This includes requests for non-degree recitals in these spaces.
  • Piano students can book a maximum of two, 3-hour blocks per day.
  • All other students can book a maximum of two, 2-hour blocks per day.
  • This restriction does not apply to teaching assistants requesting space for instructional use, or to faculty and staff.
