The purpose of the Alabama Bandmasters Music Performance Assessment is to give bands the opportunity to be evaluated and critiqued by a panel of qualified adjudicators. The panel shall consist of three (3) concert adjudicators, with one being the Head Adjudicator, and one (1) sight-reading adjudicator. The head adjudicator will be assigned to each MPA site by the ABA President and VP/President-elect. The remaining stage adjudicators and the sight-reading adjudicator for each site will be contracted by the District Chairmen. All Music Performance Assessment Adjudicators must be selected from the approved ABA Music Performance Assessment Adjudicators List.
