Full list of Texas UIL Tapspace Titles (2024)

Tuesday, January 30th, 2024

We’re headed to the San Antonio for the Texas Music Educator’s Association (TMEA) convention next week! It’s one of our favorite places to witness the power of music education, eat some great Tex-Mex, and visit with some great people in the Lone Star state.

Through the University Interscholastic League (UIL), Texas has an influential list of prescribed music titles for solo and ensemble events. We’re honored to have a large portion of our catalog sanctioned on this list! D ownload a complete listing of all Tapspace titles on the UIL list, organized by event, grade, and UIL code.

The Story of our New Covers

Thursday, September 15th, 2016

If you visit us regularly, you may have noticed that our recent releases have been landing with a new cover design. This is the result of a long-running goal of making our products visually attractive, while also making it as easy as possible to find the right stuff among our large (and growing) catalog of works.

Rather than bore you with all the mundane nitty-gritty of why this design process is so complex, we’ll share it in the form of a story starring our co-founders Jim Casella and Murray Gusseck.

Enjoy!
