Teachers of selected students will be contacted on or after November 29,

Message from the Chair

On behalf of the Student Performers Guild and the BCRMTA, Vancouver branch, I
would like to thank all the parents and teachers of the participants for their ongoing
support of this festival.

It is the intention of this festival to cultivate the love of music in these young musicians
by providing them a venue to hone their performance skills and to give them an
opportunity to share with others their talent and hard work.

Special recognition goes to our adjudicators, the SPG committee members, members of
our association, our donors and sponsors, who without their support this festival would
not be possible.

Best wishes to all the participants!

Toni Meyer, BComm, ARCT
Chairman
Policies of the Festival

Music
Students are expected to bring their own original music to be handed to the adjudicator assistant
before the class begins. Music must have the student’s name on it, and marked on the first
page of the piece. All unnecessary marking should be erased. The piece should be marked with
bar numbers. Music will be returned at the end of the class. No photocopied or duplicate music
is to be handed to the assistant or used in the performances without the proper release notice.
Release notices for out-of-print music may be obtained from your local music store. While
students who forget their music will be permitted to play, no mark or rank will be given.

Class Behaviour
Students are expected to be present for the entire class. They should wait for the adjudicator’s
signal before beginning, and after performing, sit in the first row of the room in preparation for the
adjudication.

Awards
Marks will be awarded in each class to participants who have achieved a mark of 80% or higher.
No mark will be announced. Only the first, second and third place winners will be announced
by the adjudicator and Certificates will be awarded. All trophies and scholarship awards (except
for some classes) will be awarded at the Honour Recital which will be held on Sunday, December
8, 2013 at Shadbolt Centre for the Arts, Room 102 at 6450 Deer Lake Avenue in Burnaby.

Do Not Approach the Adjudicator
Competitors, teachers, and parents are not permitted to approach or speak to the adjudicator for
any reason whatsoever. Any necessary communication may be addressed to the adjudicator
assistant.

Silence Please
As a courtesy to the participants performing, we ask that all cell phones, pagers, and electronic
devices be turned off during the session.

Telephone/Email Enquiries
Students and parents should direct all their enquiries to their teacher. Only the teacher can
make enquiries to the appropriate festival committee member by email. They will be answered
within 24 hours.

All complaints and protests must be made in writing to the Chair within the duration of the festival,
accompanied by a protest fee of $30.00. Should a written protest be sustained, fees will be
