One of the selections must have been performed at the Local Festival and received a minimum mark of 85 and the recommendation of the local Adjudicator. The second, or if applicable, the third, selection is the competitor's choice but must follow the rules of this category.
Selections must be musically contrasting. The Adjudicator will take song choice into consideration.
All selections must be at the same grade level and at the level at which the competitor was recommended by the adjudicator. If the competitor has taken the practical portion of an exam prior to December 31st, 2025, then they cannot enter that level at the provincial live finals.
Please note that unlike RCM and CC exam requirements, both selections must be the same grade/level for the Provincial Competition.
Competitors must refer carefully to either the RCM or CC syllabus to determine how many and which movements of a selection are required (i.e. one mvt., two mvts., or complete). Failure to play the required movements could result in disqualification.
Studies/Etudes, as listed in the RCM or CC syllabi, will be permitted. However, only one (1) of the pieces selected may be a Study/Etude.
"Teacher's Choice" pieces are not permitted.
