Unaccompanied classes
These classes are for any unaccompanied instrument. There are also Folk Song classes for unaccompanied or self-accompanied voice.
Special classes

-
More advanced performers may wish to enter the William Lewis Recital class. Entrants to this class should prepare a 15-minute recital of 2 or more contrasting pieces.
-
The Marian Baker memorial class is another recital class for which a minimum standard of Grade 6 on two contrasting pieces is required.
-
The Sproule class is for performers up to the age of 15. Competitors must perform a poem or an acted scene AND a song or a piece of music on any instrument.

We do not believe any enthusiastic performer should miss out on WCAF because of financial concerns or additional needs. We want to make taking part as easy as possible and to ensure we include everyone who wants to take part. Please contact admin@wcaf.org.uk to discuss any accessibility requirements or to discover more about free places.
