3.1 What do I do if I am ill or going to be unable to attend for any reason?

Please let the Section Secretary know as soon as you aware that you will not be able to attend. We shall be disappointed that you are not able to be with us on the day. Regrettably entry fees cannot be refunded once an application has been accepted.

It is a particular courtesy to us to let the Section Secretary know as soon as possible, so that if you have requested an official accompanist they can be advised that you will not be attending and avoid wasting valuable time practicing pieces that are not going to be performed on the day. We can also make adjustments to the timetables of the day and avoid embarrasing silences when competitors are called and they are not present.

3.2 Can I change my choice of piece(s)?

Once your application has been submitted, you cannot change your pieces. The Section Secretary, in consultation with the Adjudicator on the day has the right not to allow you play if you present the wrong piece on the day of the competition. In case of doubt, their decision will be final.
