39th Buckingham Festival of Music & Drama

18th & 19th November

 

Welcome to the 39th Buckingham Festival of Music and Drama and to the new Syllabus for 2011. All the information you need to enter the Festival this year should be here! Please take some time to go through it to find the most interesting and challenging classes for you or your pupils – there’s lots to choose from.

You may be relieved that we are keeping the venues exactly the same as last year.

We really are very lucky to have these splendid facilities available to us.

Always on the lookout for something new, we are taking advantage of the fact that our Orchestral Strings Adjudicator is Harpist Jane Lister to introduce harp classes for the first time. Please have a look too at the other new classes we have added in the last couple of years. We have the ‘Speak Up’ class for budding Churchills, the acoustic solo and band classes for would be Bob Dylans and the composition class for budding Mozarts.

So if you are a first-timer, don’t be afraid to have a go – we have never heard anybody say that it wasn’t well worth it! If you are a regular, maybe choose something new this year. We have made a special effort to get the Syllabus out earlier to give you as much time as possible to make your plans and get your entry in!

If you have any queries please don’t hesitate to contact our Speech and Drama or Music Secretary. And if you feel strongly that what we do is worthwhile, please consider getting involved with the organisation. We always need plenty of help on the day and we are one or two short on our committee at the moment. Please let me know if you have some time to spare.

And finally - we promise to do everything we can to make your day rewarding and enjoyable. So come and join us - we look forward to seeing you!
