Greetings from the President Michael Alexander

Welcome to Holywood Music Festival 2018!

I am delighted to welcome you to Holywood Music Festival 2018, our 70th anniversary!! This year particularly, we reflect on the great vision and energy of E. Godfrey Brown who founded the Festival back in 1948. We are proud that we continue to provide a professionally run Festival which offers the opportunity for everyone in the community to participate. Our thanks are due to the wonderful Festival committee, our fabulous army of voluntary stewards but mostly to you, our participants and supporters. I hope that you will have a rewarding experience spending time with us again this year.

Michael Alexander

Greetings from the Chairman John Young Whether you are reading this syllabus for this year’s Holywood Music Festival for the first time or have read it for more years than you might want to think about, I very much hope that you will find it both interesting and attractive. It sets out what is being offered this year and even a very quick glance will show you that we have tried to provide opportunities for as wide a range of music-makers as we possibly can. There is reason for this. The Festival is committed to offering music- makers of all kinds and ages the chance to enter and perform in front of an audience, to compete for awards and, critically, to hear what our independent – and very experienced - adjudicators have to say to them

about their performances and how they might improve. Our aim, in other words, is broadly educational. If only one of those who enters comes away having shown that he or she can perform in public and feels more self-confident as a result, we will be more than satisfied. This is the 70th year of the Holywood Music Festival, so it is a little bit special. We hope to mark it in a number of ways, but we would be especially pleased if were able to celebrate our birthday with a record number of entries. I hope you will be able to help us to achieve our aim.

John Young

Donal McCrisken MA, BMus, MTD, LTCL, Adv Cert Ed

Donal McCrisken is a Belfast-based musician with many years experience as a pianist, accompanist, conductor, examiner and adjudicator. He holds a BMus degree from Queen's University, Belfast and a Masters in Music Theory and Analysis from University of Ulster. Since 1999 Donal has been conductor of Cappella Caeciliana, one of Ireland's most exciting chamber choirs. Under his direction Cappella has given concerts and sung liturgies all over Northern Ireland, in Dublin, Germany, Austria and Italy. The choir has recorded four highly successful CDs and has

broadcast frequently on BBC Radio 3, Radio 4, Radio Ulster and RTE. In April 2011 Cappella toured the USA giving highly successful concerts in Philadelphia and singing a choral evensong at the National Cathedral in Washington DC. In 2012 they gave the premiere of a new work by Ian Wilson and were part of Philip Hammond’s Requiem for the Lost Souls of the Titanic on 14th April in St Anne’s Cathedral. Cappella Caeciliana marked its 20th anniversary with the commission of a new work from Sir James MacMillan which incorporates parts for the highly successful trio ‘The Priests’ – three founder members of the choir. The work was performed in Edinburgh and Glasgow in November 2015 and had its Belfast premiere in March 2016. Donal is committed to the development of choralism and singing in Northern Ireland and has studied singing with Russell Smythe, one of London’s leading vocal teachers. With Russell he has organised vocal workshops in Belfast involving members of the British Voice Association. He has also organised and delivered many vocal workshops himself, working with voices of all ages and stages of development. He works extensively with Northern Ireland Opera as repetiteur, accompanist and workshop facilitator and teaches classes in performance in the music department of Queen’s University Belfast. Donal was for six years, 2005 – 2011, head of music in St Malachy's College, Belfast - Northern Ireland's first specialist music school, whose students he led in concert tours to Washington DC, Philadelphia, England and Rome. A qualified British and International Federation of Festivals adjudicator, Donal has adjudicated festivals throughout Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland and the UK. In 2004 he visited Hungary to study at the renowned Kodaly School in Nyiregyaza under the tutelage of Denes Szabo. He founded the Cavehill Community Choir in February 2013, a non-audition choir which currently numbers 160. CCC is in great demand locally to sing at concerts and has already featured in the 2013 Belfast Festival at Queens and broadcast on Radio Ulster. Donal was the choral director and repetiteur for the exciting Belfast Opera project which culminated in performances in June 2016. For his work with this project he was awarded the Classic FM/ Musicians Union Inspiration Award and the whole project was nominated for the best Classical Music Education Initiative Award.


Andrea Calladine ARCM, ABSM, FISM

Andrea Calladine has a varied career as performer, teacher, conductor, coach and adjudicator in the main genres of singing to Musical Theatre. She studied initially at the Birmingham School of Music (now the Birmingham Conservatoire) gaining honours in Diplomas and was awarded many major prizes. As a singer, she has travelled widely at home and in Europe performing from her wide concert and oratorio repertoire including performances of The Messiah and The Creation through the Mozart Masses to Dvorak’s Stabat Mater, the Requiems of Brahms, Fauré and Rutter, and she has made radio broadcasts. Today, she is happiest teaching Music Theatre where her skills in singing, acting and language can be combined. Andrea’s teaching commitments

now are divided between a very busy private practice, where she coaches many professional singers, and a leading Independent School. Andrea is an active adjudicator member of the British and International Federation of Festivals, where she hopes to bring not only her wealth of experience as both teacher and performer, but also her love of singing, encouragement of the performers and, above all, a sense of humour! She is looking forward to adjudicating and being part of the Holywood Festival of Music's 70th Anniversary Celebrations and also to hearing some wonderful singing from all of the performers.

RULES AND CONDITIONS

1. Participants Competition in this Festival is open to any person who, in accordance with the conditions prescribed for each Class, is qualified to compete therein, subject to the following:

This Festival is for amateurs. For the purpose of this Festival, an amateur is considered to be a person who does not make his/her living by performing or teaching in the discipline involved. This does not apply to conductors. 2. Entries The Committee reserves the right to refuse any entry without assigning a reason. Age: The age of the entrant on 30 September 2018 will be deemed to be his or her age for the purpose of entry. Final date of entry: All entries must be made on line or on the official entry form, which must reach the address specified on the entry form. Entry forms must be fully completed and submitted no later than Tuesday 16th October 2018. Own Choice Pieces: Entries will not be accepted without full details of any Own Choice title and composer being shown on the entry form. Under no circumstances will entrants be allowed to change an Own Choice piece once it has been submitted and entrants can only perform music printed in the programme. Entry fees cannot be returned except for entries not accepted by the decision of the Committee. The Committee reserves the right to close classes before the official closing date if sufficient entries have not been received. 3. Repeats Performers should not play repeats in test pieces unless specified in the Syllabus, except for Da Capo and Dal Segno. In Own Choice pieces repeats are optional, but all works performed must comply with the time limits for that class. 4. Time limit Time limit for each class is shown in the Syllabus and this must be strictly adhered to. Those who play for longer than the time limit will have marks deducted and the adjudicator may stop the performance. 5. Set Music Performers must perform from the edition specified, and in the key specified, or they will be disqualified. Copies of own choice music for the Official Accompanist must be sent with the entry to the Section Music secretary or to arrive not later than 16th October 2018. A copy for the Adjudicator must be sent with the entry or brought on the day. One of these copies must be an original, preferably that given to the accompanist. In the case of pieces taken from a volume used by more than one performer, each performer must provide two copies – one for the Adjudicator and one for the Official accompanist. Unauthorised photocopies will not be returned.


Under no circumstances may performers perform the same piece in more than one class. 6. Accompanists

• Official Accompanists will be available to accompany classes with set pieces. Competitors who wish to provide their own accompanist may do so but must indicate on the entry form that they do not require the official accompanist.

• Those performers who wish to have an Official Accompanist for Own Choice pieces must indicate this on the entry form. A copy of the music in the correct key and clearly marked with the performer’s name and class entry number must be received by the Music Section Secretary at the time of entry or no later than 16th October 2018. Music received after that date may not be accepted. It is important to ensure that correct postage is observed otherwise the music may fail to arrive.

• Where music is not sent in time, either the performer or teacher can contact the accompanist and negotiate an arrangement, or can take the chance that the accompanist would be prepared to sight read the piece. The accompanist has the right to refuse to sight read the music, in which case the performer can choose to play unaccompanied but will not be eligible for a mark or a place.

• Each performer must provide a separate copy of music for the accompanist, even if there are two or more performers performing the same music. When sending a photocopy, please ensure that it is of good quality.

• If you have special requirements for a piece of music, please mark these clearly on the music and include clear, written instructions. The accompanist is not at fault if you have not made your wishes clear.

• It is not acceptable to choose another accompanist once the music has been sent to the Section Secretary. The only exception to this is in the case of music not received by 16th October 2018. In these circumstances performers may bring their own accompanist at their own expense.

• In the event of a performer who has requested an Official Accompanist having to withdraw from the festival, it is essential that they inform the Section Secretary so that the Official Accompanist can be notified as soon as possible.

• Rehearsals may be organized with the Official Accompanist three weeks before the Festival begins. Such arrangements are entirely the responsibility of the performer, parent or person with parental responsibility, including payment of the appropriate fee and supervision where appropriate. The Honorary Secretary can provide contact details of Official Accompanists.

7. Vocal Classes All vocal set pieces are to be sung in English, unless specified in the Syllabus as ‘may be sung in the original text’. (This does not apply to the Traditional Music Section of the syllabus). Boy sopranos are not eligible for female vocal classes. 8. Adjudicators The Committee reserves the right to engage additional adjudicators, or to substitute without notice for any adjudicator unable to appear, and to transfer classes from one session to another, or from one day to another.


No entrant, teacher or interested party may discuss any aspect of the Festival with an adjudicator before, during or after classes, except at the invitation of the adjudicator. A first prize will be awarded if the required standard is attained and additional prizes at the discretion of the Adjudicator. The Adjudicator’s decision will be regarded as final. 9. Trophies and Awards Adjudication reports can be collected at the end of each class from the desk outside the main hall. Trophies awarded are kept for eleven months (until October of the following year) and should be returned in good and clean condition. A letter will be sent to the performer during September requesting the return of the cup or trophy to this address: Mrs Judith Rebbeck, 21 Seafront Road, Holywood, BT18 0BB. It is the performer’s responsibility to have their trophies engraved. Awards will be presented at the discretion of the Adjudicator and the Committee. Awards may be withheld pending settlement of any dispute as to the eligibility of the competitor. 10. Photography, Audio or Video Recording No unauthorised photography, audio or video recording of children and young people is allowed at our Festival. Where parents/guardians/carers do not wish photos to be taken at all, then the responsible adult attending should ensure that their child is not included in official photos. 11. Complaints Any protest about the infringement of any of these rules, or action taken following an infringement, should be made in writing to the Secretary within one week of the date of the Festival, and should be accompanied by a stamped, addressed envelope or sent by email to the Secretary: Mrs Marianne Underwood, 6 Knockdarragh Park, Belfast, BT4 2LE. Email [email protected] The decision of the Committee in all matters arising out of or not specifically covered in these Rules and Regulations is final. The Festival is not responsible for the loss of any property on the premises. 12. Safeguarding The Festival’s Child Protection Policy and Approach to Creating Safer Festivals for Everyone is published explicitly in our Syllabus, Programme and on our website. By completing and signing the Entry Form or ticking the relevant box on the on-line Entry Form, all parents, guardians, carers and teachers of performers under 18 (or vulnerable adults of any age) confirm that they give, or have obtained the necessary consents for the performers to take part in the Festival. Without consent, the entry to the Festival cannot be accepted. All children and vulnerable adults must be accompanied by a responsible adult and are not the responsibility of Festival personnel. 13. Music Theatre Classes All performances using music from shows in current production are subject to copyright law. Songs from shows in current production may be sung as a concert item, i.e. with no costume or props, without need for copyright permission. Where costume or props are included in a performance copyright permission is required and the Festival Committee accepts these entries on the basis that the appropriate copyright permission has been sought and a copy of this permission is included with the entry. Performers or teachers with queries on how to obtain copyright permission for performance items should contact Festivals House on 01625 428297 before making entries.


PLATFORM PRESENTATION

Marks will be deducted from performers whose choice of song is not age appropriate. There will be no classes specifically for 10-11 year old children on Saturdays 17 and 24 November 2018.

A festival is an occasion when you want to do your best in every way, and platform deportment is a very important part of your performance. Performers can greatly add to the enjoyment of sessions by a pleasing and relaxed appearance. A performer who is at ease on the platform puts the audience at ease. A performer who has made the effort to prepare work should use care and thought when selecting clothes to wear at the performance. Smart dress is a courtesy to the audience and flamboyant or very casual clothes should be avoided. Skirts always look shorter on a platform so it may be more appropriate to wear a longer skirt. Female cellists and guitarists may find trousers more comfortable than skirts. Expensive clothes are not necessary. Instruments should have been tuned prior to the class, so that only minor adjustment is required on the platform. When a music stand is used it should be placed so that it does not obscure the audience’s view of your playing. When performers play an “Own Choice” piece they will be asked to announce to the audience what they will be performing. A performance starts before the first note, and finishes after the last one. Wait quietly until the adjudicator is ready, taking a few deep breaths, so that you begin your performance feeling comfortable. A slight bow to the adjudicator and audience at the end is a courtesy, and rounds off your performance (don’t forget to acknowledge the accompanist, if you are using one). Leave the platform without hurrying. If you are called up to receive a prize, shake hands with the presenter before taking it. Attention to these points helps a great deal in developing a higher standard of amateur public performance. MARKING DESCRIPTORS 75-77 A performance limited in its communication 78-80 A performance showing development of technique and/or communication 81-83 A capable performance showing some artistic appreciation and/or technical ability 84-86 A convincing performance technically and artistically 87-89 An excellent performance technically and artistically 90+ An exceptional performance, both technically and artistically


HOLYWOOD MUSIC FESTIVAL – CHILD PROTECTION POLICY

CREATING SAFER FESTIVALS FOR EVERYONE

The British and International Federation of Festivals for Music, Dance and Speech work for amateur festivals everywhere to help create thousands of educational performance opportunities for children and young people each year. The Federation, and our member Festivals, are committed to ensuring safe environments for children and young people and believe that it is always unacceptable for a child or young person to experience abuse of any kind. We recognise our responsibility to safeguard the welfare of all children and young people, by a commitment to recommend best practice which protects them.

This policy applies to our Board of Trustees, paid staff, Adjudicator members, volunteers, students or anyone working on behalf of the Federation and our member Festivals.

We recognise that: • the welfare of the child/young person is paramount • all children, regardless of age, disability, gender, racial heritage, religious belief, sexual orientation

or identity, have the right to equal protection from all types of harm or abuse • working in partnership with children, young people, their parents, carers and other agencies is

essential in promoting young people’s welfare. The purpose of the policy: • to provide protection for the children and young people who participate in our festivals, including

the children of festival members • to provide staff and volunteers with guidance on procedures they should adopt in the event that

they suspect a child or young person may be experiencing, or be at risk of, harm We will seek to safeguard children and young people by: • valuing them, listening to and respecting them • adopting child protection guidelines through procedures and safe working practice for staff and

volunteers • recruiting staff and volunteers safely, ensuring all necessary checks are made • sharing information about child protection and safe working practice with children, parents, staff

and volunteers • sharing information about concerns with agencies who need to know, and involving parents and

children appropriately • providing effective management for staff and volunteers through supervision, support and training.

The Federation will review this policy each year in November in line with Safe Network guidance or sooner in light of any changes in legislation or guidance. All changes will be communicated to our member Festivals in time for the start of the new Festival year.

The Federation and its member Festivals use the following policies and procedures to create Safer Festivals for everyone:

1. A single, definitive Child Protection Policy adopted by all Federation Festivals.

2. One or more designated Festival Safeguarding Officers (FSO) appointed for each Federation Festival. Mrs Olive Elliott Mobile 07745379006 and Mrs Marianne Underood 07866616379.

3. Best practice advice in the form of Safe Working Practice and Festival Child Protection leaflets, with support and training for all Festival staff and volunteers. Including clear reporting procedures for


DATA PROTECTION

anyone with a concern about a child.

4. Appropriate recruitment and induction procedures for all new Festival staff and volunteers responsible for providing safe environments for everyone attending / performing at a Federation Festival.

5. All Festival stewards wear an identity badge. All teachers/parents/guardians /carers are asked to report all incidents of any nature to anyone wearing a badge. All reported incidents will be handled in accordance with the Safe Working Practice and Festival Child Protection best practice advice. In addition we will ensure the availability of a quiet area / room where concerns can be expressed in private.

6. For the duration of the Festival all teachers/parents/guardians/carers are responsible for the continuous care and supervision of their own children/pupils/vulnerable adults. If they are unable to attend personally, they must delegate their responsibilities to an identified adult and ensure that their children/pupils/vulnerable adults are aware of the identity and name of the person responsible for their care. This includes supervision throughout all Festival venues, performance, practice and changing areas that may be provided.

7. No unauthorised photography or video recording is allowed at our Festivals. Where parents/guardians/carers do not wish photos to be taken at all, then the responsible adult attending should ensure that their child/pupil/vulnerable adult is not included in official authorised photos.

8. Some children and vulnerable adults may have specific needs in order to take part. If this is the case we ask the responsible teachers/parents/guardians/carers to contact the Festival prior to arrival. The Festival actively seeks wherever possible to meet these needs, but must know beforehand in order to prepare support – or to advise that help cannot be provided on this occasion.

9. The Festival’s Child Protection Policy and approach to Creating Safer Festivals for Everyone is published explicitly in our Syllabus, Programme and on our website. By completing and signing the entry form all parents / guardians / carers and teachers of performers under 18 (or vulnerable adults of any age) confirm that they give (or have obtained) the necessary consents for the performers to take part in the Festival. Without consent the entry to the Festival cannot be accepted.
