Registration Information
- Entries are accepted on a first-come-first-served basis. Sample entry forms are attached. Use one form for each student.
- Entries may be mailed, hand-delivered or e-mailed. Entries are deemed complete when all the information requested on the entry form (including performance duration) is included, and when the entry form and fee are in the hands of the Recitals Co-ordinator.
- Teachers may include special scheduling requests on the entry form, though these cannot be guaranteed. Special scheduling requests received after the entry deadline will not be considered. Please note that scheduling of all of a teacher's or accompanist's students in one recital section cannot be guaranteed.
- Entry fee per student per recital is $6.00, payable by cheque only to SRMTA Regina Branch, and is non-refundable once submitted. Cash will not be accepted.
- In those recitals which are designated as pre-festival, students may perform more than one selection, but the following time restrictions apply:
Grades 6 through 8 6 minutes
Grades 9 through ARCT 10 minutes
Recital Information
- Student recitals are open to any age or level of student of any branch member.
- Recitals may be divided into two segments depending on number of entries and level of participants, at the discretion of the Recitals Co-ordinator. Details of individual recitals are notified after the entry deadline.
- All accompaniments should be live and acoustic.
- Memorization is encouraged but not required; teachers have discretion about this.
- Teachers or students requiring additional equipment (stools for small performers, e.g.) should bring it with them; a piano lamp will be provided.
- Teachers are responsible for all communication between their students and the Recitals Coordinator.
- The recital series is a co-operative opportunity for members and their students. Unless the Recitals Co-ordinator has agreed otherwise for exceptional reasons, teachers must be available to help supervise and are expected to remain until the end of the recital segment in which their students are participating. Duties of teachers (shared amongst participating teachers and assigned by the Recitals Co-ordinator) include setting up the venue, restoring the venue for church use, greeting students and families, making introductory remarks, and altering the piano lid. One teacher at each recital will be assigned to liaise with families to ensure a respectful audience for all participants.
- The piano is not available for students to play ahead of time unless prior arrangements have been made with the church office.
RECITAL ETIQUETTE
The following notes on recital etiquette will be printed in every program, and teachers are asked to share and discuss them
ahead of time with participating families:
- SRMTA Regina Branch recitals are scent-free events.
- Students should check in with the greeting teacher when they arrive; audience members are welcome to sit anywhere except the front row of pews.
- Recitals will begin at the scheduled time and after opening remarks the program will run without announcements in the order of the printed program, unless other arrangements have been agreed.
- An aim of the recital series is to foster the opportunity for all participants for perform at their best for an audience without distraction. Students and families should plan to remain for the entire recital or recital section. Respectful behaviour is expected - if people need to move around it should be during applause only.
- The cloister can be used to give small children a break, accompanied by a parent. All children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times outside of the sanctuary itself.
- Flash photography is not permitted.
- Videotaping should be done discreetly and only of students who are members of that family.
