New
Classes this year:
To add to the junior vocal and
instrumental classes, we are introducing a range of INSTRUMENTAL
ENSEMBLE classes. These are classified by school year, with the
intention that groups of instrumentalists within a school year will be
able to enter. They are all open to any groups - not just
schools, and of any size, limited by the capacity of the Civic Hall and
its stage. Duos, trios, quartets, quintets, up to full
orchestras, bands are welcome to enter; please indicate the size of the
group on the entry form, and if we perceive a possible problem, we will
contact you. In the event of an exceptionally large entry, we
will accept entries in order of receipt, up to the hall's capacity.
All players should be within the age (by school year)
qualification; larger ensembles may be conducted if desired, and the
conductor may be of professional status if desired. Ensembles
should play their own choice of music, up to a maximum of six minutes,
and a copy of the music should be provided for the adjudicator
immediately before the start of the class. Ensembles are asked
to provide their own music stands. Any combination of
instruments is allowed, but performances should be entirely live, i.e.
without the use of backing tracks.
For further information, please

or contact the secretary, Mrs. K. Kingdom
