An AUSTA ACT event presented in partnership with the Wesley Music Foundation.
The Festival will be held at the Wesley Music Centre, 20-22 National Circuit Forrest ACT 2603 on Sunday 2 June 2024.
All sessions are non-competitive. The entry fee to perform at the festival is $35.
Session 1: 1.00pm
Session 2: 3.30pm
Session 3: 6.00pm
All levels of playing ability can be entered in any session. Due to time constraints, there are limited places available in each session. Once the session is full no further entrants can be accepted. Please choose another session time. All performers will have the option to register twice to play two (2) pieces, $35 per piece.
Each performer will receive a report on each piece that they perform, and a Certificate of Performance. The reports will be written by pairs of experienced local teachers, thus ensuring that no student gets a report written by their own teacher.
For each session, entrants are sorted by playing ability and age into groups of approximately ten performers to play during the session. Students will be advised by email before the Festival the approximate time slot for their group. There is a 10 minute maximum limit for each piece. Shorter pieces are most welcome.
