2. When your deposit is received, an audio engineer will be hired for your recital.
3. After your recital is recorded, the recording will be available, in most cases, in the Mannes Business Office on the following business day. When you pay the balance of the fee, you will receive the recording.
Private Recording Sessions
Students can reserve the concert hall on weekdays for private recording sessions. The fee is $30 per hour with a two-hour minimum. The Audio Studio requires two weeks' notice.

Additional Information about recording sessions: You must give at least 48 hours notice to cancel or you will forfeit your deposit. To cancel, e-mail mallond@newschool.edu.
