    IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPETITION


    Please retain this portion of the form for your own reference. Havering Music School hosts two annual competitions. The Junior Musicians Festival event is to be held in the Summer Term, and recognising that it is a celebration of the musical talent of young people in the borough, it is now called HAVERING JUNIOR MUSICIANS FESTIVAL. It is for school age students, in two categories: Year 11 and under and Year 7 and under. Candidates in each class perform two pieces in an informal setting, in the presence of an invited mentor. The Havering Young Musicians Awards event is held in May. This is the boroughs premier competition for musicians of grade 6 and above, inaugurated in 1980 by the London Borough of Havering and the Havering Chamber of Commerce and Industry. These events aim to encourage students to strive for their highest personal standards of technique and musicianship. Prizes are generously donated by local sponsors. ENTRIES Entries are now invited for the JUNIOR MUSICIANS FESTIVAL 2014. This annual competition is open to solo singers and instrumentalists (including percussion). There will be TWO classes. CLASS A: Age limit - Year 11 and under CLASS B: Age limit - Year 7 and under There is no set minimum standard for either class, but as a rough guide, performers in class A are usually of around grade 4+, those in class B grade 2+. However any student who can perform two pieces to concert standard will be welcome to take part, on their teachers recommendation. To be eligible, a candidate must be either a pupil at a school in Havering or living in the Borough during the academic year 2013/14. If you won a Residential Course Prize or the Title Cup at a previous Havering Young Musician event or if you won the title shield in a previous Havering Junior Musician Festival, you will be ineligible for entry to the Havering Junior Musicians Festival.

    WORKSHOPS All entrants will be required to take part in a performance class to be held during the school day at the Music Centre, The Walk, Hornchurch as follows: MONDAY 9th June 2014 TUESDAY 10th June 2014 Times to be advised Times to be advised

    Each candidate should be prepared to perform two contrasting pieces, which should be original works or idiomatic arrangements for the instrument. The total duration should not exceed 5 minutes. An accompanist will be available on the day, though students are encouraged to make their own arrangements, to allow for prior rehearsal. A copy of the music should be available for the mentors use. Each day will be divided into a number of sessions. Entrants must be present for the entire nominated session. Family and friends are very welcome to attend. If you are unable to attend either day please send in a cover letter with your entry form. Candidates may offer two or more instruments. In this case a separate entry must be made for each. You may be required to perform on all instruments on the same day, or you may be asked to attend separate workshops, depending upon entry numbers. FINALISTS CONCERT A number of performers will be selected to take part in a concert to be held at The Salvation Army Halls, High Street, Romford on Saturday 28th June 2014 at 7.00pm. Finalists will be selected to perform on one instrument only. The mentors choice of instrument/voice and concert piece is final. The names of those awarded prizes will be announced at the end of the evening. The concert will be video recorded for archive purposes and press photographers will be in attendance. AWARDS There are a number of financial awards given to support music related purchases and generously sponsored trophies including a shield for the overall winner. All finalists will receive a certificate provided by the Romford Rotary Club.
