The National Music Festival
Ontario Music Festivals Association
Open Competition
Graded Competition
Classes are offered for solo performances in each of Grades 8, 9, 10 and Diploma Conservatory levels for the following classes: Voice, Piano, Strings, Woodwinds and Brass. Conservatory levels are determined by the current Syllabi of either the Royal Conservatory of Music (Toronto) or Conservatory Canada / Western Ontario Conservatory of Music (London). All repertoire must be found in the syllabi of at least one of these Conservatories. A local festival may designate a maximum of TWO competitors in each discipline at each grade level. This competition is designed to allow students at a slightly more junior level the chance to meet and compete with performers at their own stage of musical development, to be adjudicated by international level adjudicators and to be winners in this level. Graded performers are to prepare TWO contrasting pieces. Singers must perform THREE pieces and in TWO languages (e.g., English and French). Maximum performance time is 20 minutes. REPRESENTATION OF OUR FESTIVAL
Winners of Special Classes will be eligible to represent The Kiwanis Music Festival of London Inc. at the Provincial Finals. Provincial Finals will be held June 14 - 18, 2000 at Cambrian College in Sudbury, Ontario. It is the responsibility of the winner to cover the costs incurred in attending the Provincial Finals. At the discretion of the Board, alternates (provided a minimum mark of 85 is obtained) may be selected in the event the person originally selected is prevented from participating. Winners in the Provincial Finals will go on to the National Festival Competitions sponsored by The Federation of Canadian Music Festivals and the hosting province. National Finals will be held August 2000 in Halifax, Nova Scotia. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
