4. Conflicts of interest

Teachers, past three years

A juror must withdraw from scoring an entry by someone they have taught in the last three years. We check your list against the panel before judging begins.

Studying with a juror does not disqualify you — it would penalise exactly the applicants a Prize exists for. The jury for this Prize is named on its page, so you can see who will hear you.

This list is never shown to the jury while they score.

5. Before you pay

I have read the regulations, the judging criteria and the refund policy, and I accept them.
The performance is my own (or that of the performer named above), unedited within each work, and the audio is the audio of that take.
If this entry wins, I agree that the performer's name, country, instrument, repertoire and the performance may be published.

Entry fees are non-refundable once paid, except in the three cases set out in the refund policy.

Payment is handled by our payment provider. We never see your card details.
