The winner and runner-up (and maybe a third player) from the Mock Orchestral Tuba Competition (held on Friday, Feb. 18th,. 2005) will perform for Gene on Saturday. To be eligible to perform on the Sat. Morning masterclass you will have to participate in the Mock Orchestral Tuba Competition (and be selected as the winner or runner-up).
Hope this answers your question...I'm not sure if this was what you were getting at.
Thanks,
Mike

Ahhh...I thought I was missing your question!
Good question--the masterclass is open to all registered guests. There will be a $35 registration fee for the whole conference ($25 for itea members) (Feb. 17-19, 2005). But there will also be a $15 per day fee (for non-ITEA and ITEA members alike) if you wish to just attend on just Sat. Feb. 19th (or just Friday, Feb. 18th). I'll post a schedule of events here as soon as I solidify everything.
Gene will also be performing a recital on Friday night. For this event there will be a "concert fee" of $5 if you only wish to attend an evening concert instead of the whole day's events. The Gene Pokorny Masterclass will be part of the "day events" which would fit the $15 cost as stated above.
Thanks for your question.

Solo Competitions
Sorry, Will, no. The Mock Orchestral and Military Band auditions plus the the quartet competition is enough to try and sponsor financially. Wish I could do more....

Thanks!
Paul,
I'm just so happy that there's been so much interest in this! I feel there's been a bit of a void along the lines of competitions for tuba quartet and mock auditions lately and I wanted to remedy that. I think the "Interactive" Mock auditions will be especially meaningful to not just the auditionees, but any registrant that comes to watch as well.
Hope to see you there,
Mike

Jason,
I believe you can download the pdf application from ITEA's hompage (midway down on the left: "JOIN ITEA" link). Here' the link:
http://www.iteaonline.org
...but if this fails, there may be an application form in the Journal that may exist at your local college of music library....I think your best bet is the iteaonline website.
Best wishes,
Mike

Quartet Competition
Hello again,
It appears that Bernel Music is getting out of the distribution business and strictly doing the publishing business. Therefore, you will not be able to get the ITEA Midwest Quartet Competition music there at Bernel.
Sotto Voce is launching a new publishing business to deal with this issue, it will be called: TUBAQUARTET.COM (our website). It is our hope that eventually this will be your one-stop shop for quartet music.
In the near future, however, you will be able to purchase the following FINAL ROUND charts for the quartet competition on our website www.tubaquartet.com:
The Village Choir, arr. Paul Walton (of Tubalaté)
Refractions, by Patrick Schulz
Those charts should be up and available in a few weeks--I'll post another brief note when they go up. You will be able to buy them with your credit card through PayPal.
Also, the remaining piece for the Final Round: English Madrigal Suite, arr. yours truly: will be up on the the www.tubaeuphoniumpress.com site VERY soon. I'll post when it's officially up.
Sorry for the delay in getting these charts--but this competition is doing what one hopes all competitions do: increase the literature with new things!! ENJOY!!
I'll keep you posted,
Mike
