oops, I accidently posted the preceeding outline before I finished.

This was how my kids have outlined their resumes. Orchestras & Ensembles are split because there were too many. Additional Performances includes solo performances, and orchestras that are not ongoing, such as an opera, Nutcracker, school musical orchestra, etc.

Repertoire is only included when asked for.

It works out very nice and compact, exactly one page -except for the repertoire lists. We don’t inlcude any info about what position played (as Cosmos does) or where it was performed.

If anyone has any ideas about how to cut back the repertoire lists, I would like to hear it. I cut it down from 3 pages to 2 when I eliminated anything played before the last 2 years, but I’d like to cut it back further. The problem is my S plays in so many different groups- I think there are 15 orchestras and ensembles listed for the last 2 years, (not including summer music) that the repertoire becomes quite large. And we still have jr & sr year to add. I’m not sure what could (or should) be eliminated.
