Instructions

• Please download the form by clicking here and printing off the PDF. Make sure the correct SECTION (i.e. Piano, Strings etc), CLASS NUMBER, OWN CHOICE TITLE(S) and an accurate estimate of the DURATION of the chosen pieces are entered.
  
• Send the completed form(s), together with fees (cheques payable to Hatfield and District Music Festival) and a STAMPED ADDRESSED ENVELOPE to:
  
  The Festival Administrator, Hatfield & District Music Festival,
  3 The Park, Redbourn, Herts AL3 7LR.

• If needed, the Official Accompanist MUST be booked in advance and copies of the music should be sent with entry. The fee covers the services of the Accompanist, a short consultation on the day and the time which is spent preparing the music. It does NOT entitle the competitor to a full “practice session” at, or in advance of the Festival. This must be arranged privately with the Accompanist, whose contact details can be obtained from the Administrator.
  
• A block fee of £20.00 will be charged for SINGERS entering for three or more classes and needing the Official Accompanist. Otherwise, fees quoted are PER CLASS.
  
• Entries cannot be accepted after 7th February 2010 unless there are cancellations or a shortage of entries in a specific class - see Entry Regulations in the Syllabus.
  
• The signature of a parent or teacher is necessary to certify the age of the entrant in classes where age limits apply. The teacher’s signature is necessary to certify that the Own Composition chosen by the entrant is his/her own work.

• Entrants will be sent letters confirming acceptance of their entries 2-3 weeks before the Festival with times of attendance and full instructions.
  
• For those choosing the “Non-competitive” option, please tick NC column.
