Special notes to entrants
Competition dates have been optimised to minimise disruption or conflict with important academic milestones. If you are in
any doubt then discuss this with your parent/guardian and academic tutor.
This may be your first composition for a larger ensemble and it could be the winning entry. Do not be put off by the wide age range as this will be taken into account by the judges.
