NAfME Associate membership does not grant eligibility as it is not a Kansas membership. Each student participating in Instrumental Live Auditions must first be an performing member of their KMEA District Band, Jazz Ensemble, or Orchestra. Participation in a nominated district group does not provide eligibility for this event.
