VOCAL CO-ORDINATOR:
Mr Roger Witney
email: rogerwitney@hotmail.com

ACCOMPANISTS: If you do not have your own accompanist, contact the Co-ordinator for advice. Please also note that recorded backing tracks are not allowed, except in classes where specific permission is given in the syllabus.

PHOTOCOPIES: The adjudicator will need to have a copy of the music being performed. It may be a photocopy, but this will be retained by the Festival and subsequently destroyed. (See Rule 15 in General Rules).

PLEASE NOTE: Competitors must accept the times and dates allocated to them by the Festival Organisers to any Class. However, the Organisers will try to accommodate special requests in exceptional circumstances, but only if specified on the entry form. Whilst every effort will be made to accommodate such requests, in the interests of the smooth running of the Festival, it may not be possible to do so. (See Rule 6 in General Rules).

ENTRIES: Entry forms can be found on the homepage of our website. It is preferred that entries are made online, but if you wish to make alternative arrangements, please contact the Co-ordinator, who will advise.
Notification of competition date and time will be emailed to the person completing the entry, who, if entering multiple candidates, is responsible for informing the individuals concerned.
Entries received after the closing date may not be accepted.

Please note that the receipt of completed entries denotes acceptance of the above as well as the Festival’s General Rules.
