Memorization of music is expected in competitive solo classes. Three (3) marks will be deducted if the score is used. No marks will be deducted for using the score in duet, trio or quartet classes.

 

Participants in graded classes, except the Canadian Composers class, may only select repertoire, as listed from a current Royal Conservatory of Music or Conservatory Canada Syllabus. Abridged versions of classical music are not acceptable. Selections for the Canadian Composers Class must be composers who are recognized and published and be consistent with performer’s grade level.
