Frequently asked questions:

Can we change our piece or pieces?No.We send a complete list of competitors with the pieces to our adjudicators before the festival, to make sure we have allotted sufficient time to adjudicate each class. Any changes would affect the adjudicator's preparation and time line. We also print the list of pieces in our program.

Can we change our scheduled time?No.All class timings are worked out by how much time each piece takes to perform and to adjudicate. There are no extra time slots for adjudicating during the day that have not been allocated.

What happens if we show up late - will the student still be permitted to play?If you show up late for your class and the adjudicator has not started to adjudicate the class, you will be able to perform your piece, however if the adjudicator has started the adjudication of the other performers you will not be able to perform and there is no way to make up the missed class.

How do we advance to playoffs?Play-offs will be for Intermediate and Senior Piano.To be able to play in the playoffs you have to:

1 - Compete in a minimum of two classes or in one Concert Class. 2 - Place first in one of your classes or in a Concert Class. 3 - Achieve a mark of 80% or more. (If your score is below 80% you will not be able to compete in the play-offs) 4 - The piece you played in the class in which you won first place, is the one you will play in the play-offs.

Who decides the winners?Primary and Junior awards are decided by the adjudicator. Intermediates and seniors are required to compete in play offs. Each student is given a mark on their performance in the play-off classes and all awards are presented according to those marks - please note these marks are not given out to the teachers or students.

How do we find out if we have won an award? At the end of the play-off classes the Festival Committee will have a meeting. They will contact your teacher if you have won an award and if you will perform at the final concert. This will take a few days.


Awards and Scholarships are to be awarded on the basis of class placement.In the eventuality of a tie the adjudicator’s decision will stand.
