2011.2012 TSYO Concerto Competition
The competition is open to the public and admission is free.
The Competition
Applicants for the TSYO Concerto Competition will perform for a jury (consisting of TSYO faculty members) on Thursday December 15, 2011 at 3:00 pm at the Knox College Chapel, University of Toronto (59 St. George Street). All parents and friends are welcome to attend. The winners of the TSYO Concerto Competition will have an opportunity to perform with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra in one of its concerts for young people, or with the Toronto Symphony Youth Orchestra.
Requirements
- Applicants must be current TSYO members in good standing.
- Applicants will play a complete movement from a concerto or a large solo work of own choice.
- Applicants must supply an accompanist.
- The concerto or solo piece must be written for soloist with orchestral accompaniment.
- The maximum length of the movement must not be more than 10 minutes (firm; please make cuts, as necessary).
Please try to coordinate your accompanist so musicians with the same accompanist can be grouped close together. Please bring at least one copy of your music for the jury.
TSYO members interested in participating should hand in a completed application form no later than Thursday December 1, 2011. Please ensure that timing, key and number of your concerto are correct. Any special requests for performance time should be noted on application form.
