HISTORY

The SMFA is one of the province’s oldest organizations and has influenced all Saskatchewan music. Its structures and programs have been followed throughout Canada. Inspired by Governor General Earl Grey’s vision of a Dominion-wide festival, the SMFA was established in 1908 in Regina by Fred Chisholm and Frank Laubach. All Saskatchewan musical groups were invited to the first Provincial Festival in 1909 in Regina. The annual festival moved to Saskatoon, Prince Albert and Moose Jaw, and then continued the rotation. Excellent railway service allowed participants, including large ensembles, to come from all parts of the province. To satisfy increasing demands, District Festivals were added, beginning at Unity in 1926. Expansion

continued until there were fifty-one in 2002, including one fully bilingual event at Gravelbourg. An early president, Chief Justice Brown, secured a government grant to be administered by the University of Saskatchewan under its president, Walter Murray. Murray, another early SMFA president, provided office space for the SMFA secretary and a car to facilitate festival fieldwork. Adult vocal ensembles and solos were eligible for the first festival, with other categories added gradually. Provincial awards kept increasing until several hundred performers competed through a system of District winners. This model has since been used by the Federation of Canadian Music Festivals in all provinces. The continued growth of large ensembles encouraged the formation of many provincial associations to accommodate various categories such as choral and band. The SMFA occasionally commissions works for special celebrations. The Concerto Competition (established in 1979) and the Gordon Wallis Opera Competition (2000), administered by the SMFA, are held in alternating years. In addition to cash prizes, the winners are featured as guest soloists with the Regina and Saskatoon Symphony Orchestras. In 2009, the SMFA celebrated the 100th Anniversary of the first Provincial Festival with a Centennial Re-enactment Concert held in Regina. In addition, special Centennial classes were heard at the SMFA Provincial Finals and the Federation of Canadian Music Festivals AGM/Conference and National Music Festival Competitions were held in Saskatoon.

EDITOR’S NOTE

It has been a great privilege to work on this edition of the SMFA syllabus. The syllabus is the foundational document for our District and Provincial festivals. It lists the classes that may be entered, the regulations that must be followed, and the criteria that must be met. That sounds dry and boring, yet I have a passion for this document! As a music teacher I eagerly looked forward to each new edition’s arrival, excited to see what the test piece options were for my students, and what new classes might be available. The syllabus provides a framework, but the people who teach and perform are the ones who then bring that structure to life and vitality.

Classical Competitive Festivals. This is the tag line you find beneath our logo. So much is contained in those three words. “Classical” implies a tradition of fine music that spans the centuries from the 1600s to the present day. We are rightly proud of the tradition of Saskatchewan Music Festivals: a heritage that is over 100 years old! Do not, however, mistake tradition for stagnation. Each syllabus builds on the ones that came before. It is a living document that continues to change and expand. In this edition, changes include new Provincial classes in several disciplines, greatly expanded guitar and musical theatre sections, and the expansion of the intermediate age category to include 17 and under. Careful thought and discussion go into the changes and additions made with each syllabus, always with an aim to best serve our musicians.

“Competitive”, the second word, embodies an idea that some people shy away from. However, there are many benefits to competition. There is the discipline of working a piece to perfection, the satisfaction of a job well done, the growth that comes through constructive criticism, the determination to do better the next time around, the self confidence that develops in learning to conquer nerves, the perseverance of doing your best no matter the outcome, and the value of learning to win - or not win - with dignity and grace. Many of us would not be where we are in life without the motivation of competition.

The final word in the tag line is “Festivals”. What an inspiring concept! This is a word that is rooted in the idea of celebration and delight. In the midst of competitions and striving for excellence, there remains a spirit of festival. We come together, we hear fine music, we gain new insights, we applaud each other’s accomplishments, we experience joy and kinship. Knowing the wealth of musical excellence that will be shared at festivals across our province each year is what makes working on this syllabus gratifying and worthwhile.

The work that goes into a new syllabus is extraordinary - countless hours are spent selecting test pieces, researching publishers and music availability, organizing classes, making decisions, typesetting, formatting, and proofreading. Were one to tackle this alone, the task would be insurmountable. However, as with music festivals themselves, the syllabus is built piece by piece through the work of many volunteers. My sincere thanks to everyone who contributed in any way, especially to our hardworking and dedicated syllabus committee! Special thanks also to Carol Donhauser for her tireless work in formatting, typesetting and putting this document together. Her expertise is invaluable not only for this syllabus but also to our board and our entire provincial organization.

pyright© Do’s and Don’ts COPYRIGHT© INFORMATION

Copyright is literally the right to copy. The composer usually owns the copyright for a specific piece and they in turn assign the right to a publisher to help engrave, promote and distribute the piece. The publisher pays the composer a royalty on each copy sold. So who has the right to photocopy or alter a composer's work? Only the composer!

Copying music by any means for the purpose of performance is expressly prohibited except under the fair use guidelines: "Emergency copying to replace purchased copies which for any reason are not available for an imminent performance is allowed, provided purchased replacement copies shall be substituted in due course.”

What does the statement above mean? Let's give some examples:

1) One of your sopranos is participating in a District Festival next week but the required music hasn't arrived yet. You make photocopies from your personal library. It is fair use – provided you don't cancel your order. The festival committee may request a sales slip from a music store to prove that the music has been ordered and paid for.

2) Your eighth grade clarinet player has misplaced the solo he was to perform. You make a photocopy from another student's music and order a new copy for the first student. Again, this is fair use but you must order the copy and provide proof of purchase.

There is no excuse for not having a second or third copy for the adjudicator or accompanist. Most major publishers will grant permission to make up to three copies (provided you have an original) for a small fee or no fee at all. BUT, you have to email them and ask for permission. They will then instruct you on how many copies you may make and what needs to be written on the bottom of each copy. This email permission must be provided to the festival.

Copying for a page turn is not allowed and is an infringement of the law. Photocopies for page turning purposes will only be allowed when written permission is supplied by the holder of the copyright material. The Frederick Harris Music Co. Limited allows festival participants to photocopy one page per selection from their publications in order to facilitate a page turn.

If you wish to transpose any existing publication or modify it in any way, you must seek permission. It is illegal to duplicate or alter music that has been copyrighted. Music in the Public Domain should be researched by your local music store to ensure it is in the Public Domain before any selection is used for Festival purposes. Publications that are out of print or in the Public Domain may not be photocopied until you have cleared it with the rightful owner. Your local music store should be able to assist you with any of these procedures.

Although many websites claim to offer Free Public Domain music, competitors need to be aware that, in most cases, the music is not free and has been illegally scanned or copied from a publishing company. For instance, all of J.S. Bach's works are in the public domain; however, a publisher has gone to considerable expense to digitize or in some cases, engrave their particular edition of the work. This involves hours of deciphering and deciding what the original manuscript noted, and making decisions based on experience. The publisher's edition is copyrighted and protected under the copyright law. It is therefore illegal to download a scanned or copied version that someone has posted on the internet. Avoid using these "free" websites for festival choices, unless you have actually paid a fee or have written permission from the author/composer for the piece and can provide proof of purchase to your District Festival.

© PHOTOCOPYING IS ILLEGAL

“Copyright infringement is a serious breach of the law. The Copyright Act provides that the owner of the copyright may pursue all civil remedies including damages and an accounting against an individual for infringement of copyright. The individual may also be subject to criminal prosecution and fines up to $1,000,000. It is also an offence to distribute infringing copies (those photocopied without permission) whether or not it is done for profit.”

• Photocopying/duplicating is illegal (without the written permission of the copyright

holder) • The penalties for a breach of copyright law are severe (fines plus possible jail time) The use of photocopied, duplicated, or altered copyright music by competitors or

accompanists in SMFA Festivals will not be tolerated. Competitors or their accompanists using duplicated copyright music will be disqualified: no adjudication, mark, or scholarship will be considered for the competitor. This rule applies at the District and Provincial levels.

3. Competitors in the National classes will not receive an oral or written adjudication. First and second place marks are to be announced.

4. Two types of certificates will be issued. An ‘Honour’ certificate will be awarded to all winners receiving a mark of 80 or more. A ‘Merit’ certificate will be awarded to all winners obtaining a mark from 75 to 79 and to the runner-up of each class, providing a mark of 75 or more has been attained. In the case of a tie, a certificate will be presented to the two entries.

5. While no specific number of marks can be allotted for memory work, due consideration will be given to memorized performances.

GENERAL

1. The District Festival committee may require competitors to certify that the regulations as set out above have been met. The decision of the committee is final.

2. The District Festival President and one other committee member along with the President of the Provincial Association constitute a protest committee to act at any festival, should the need arise. Unresolved protests may be submitted in writing to the Provincial Office c/o the Provincial President. In no case is the adjudicator to be approached.

3. Any breach of regulations, by the competitor, may result in disqualification.

DISTRICT FESTIVAL SCHOLARSHIP REGULATIONS District Festivals are responsible for setting their own criteria for scholarships and awards. SMFA recommends that, in order to qualify for a district scholarship or award, each individual named on the entry form will have entered and competed in at least two classes in the same discipline when it is evident that there is provision of suitable classes from which to choose. The District Festival’s Scholarship/Award restrictions must be published, at least 30 days prior to the entry close date, on the festival page found on the SMFA website.

It is the responsibility of the adjudicator to choose District Festival scholarship winners. Members of District Festival committees, whose family members or students are eligible for scholarships, must not attend the final scholarship meeting of the adjudicator and scholarship committee.

Award recipients must have fully complied with the SMFA Regulations and will be announced and presented during the festival or at the Final Awards Concert.


- 13 -

PROVINCIAL SCHOLARSHIP REGULATIONS

An annual Provincial Competition will be held for selected representatives from District Festivals. Scholarship winners are selected by the adjudicator and, in each case, will be awarded to the competitor who, in the opinion of the adjudicator, has given the most outstanding performance.

Art Song Classes

The Art Song was a creation of the late 18th and early 19th centuries and continues into the 20th and 21st centuries. These songs were written for voice with piano accompaniment.

MUSICAL THEATRE CLASSES *** Important: As this is a three-year document, changes or corrections can be found at www.smfa.ca. Please check often for updates. ***

DISTRICT/PROVINCIAL MUSICAL THEATRE CLASSES

In all of the Musical Theatre Classes, competitors may use costumes. The use of limited sets and/or props and choreography is allowed. The use of live props is not allowed, except in the case of an accompanist saying character lines that are in the music as part of the song. Spoken passages are allowed only if published in the musical score provided. All selections are to be sung from a published score and be gender/voice type appropriate. In all cases, the singing, rather than the staging, is of first importance. Exact imitation of a professional performance is not permitted. Originality in performance and interpretation is encouraged. Selections are not to include operetta/light opera (e.g. Romberg, Johann Strauss, Lehar, Offenbach, Gilbert & Sullivan). The following is a definition of the Musical Theatre Standard Repertoire required in the following classes:

• Tin Pan Alley era (1920 – 1949) – Composers such as Berlin, Kern, Gershwin, Porter, Rodgers & Hart, Weill

• The Golden Age (1943-1974) Composers such as Rodgers & Hammerstein, Lerner & Loewe, Bock & Harnick, Sondheim

Récit du texte en prose

Choisir un passage descriptif d’un livre préféré ou un extrait qui comprend un narrateur aussi bien que des personnages qui prennent la parole. Le plus souvent ce sera un extrait sélectionné d’une histoire plus longue. Essayer de trouver une sélection qui se raconte bien en extrait autonome, avec un début, un milieu et une fin. Commencer la présentation avec une introduction qui donne des détails nécessaires au préalable, p.ex. «Ceci est un extrait d’Élise et Beethoven de K.E. Olsen. Élise Poirier, musicienne de grand talent, fait des plans avec ses amis pour se rendre en Europe pour un concours de piano. » [OR] p.ex. « Ceci est un extrait des Misérables de Victor Hugo. Cosette, pauvre enfant confiée à un couple d’aubergistes cruels, les Thénardier, rêve d’une vie ailleurs. » On peut faire des coupures tout en respectant les intentions de l’auteur. Pour un débit naturel, on coupe, par exemple, des phrases comme « dit-il », tout en faisant une distinction appropriée entre les voix des interlocuteurs. Pour la cohérence de l’extrait on peut enlever la mention de personnages qui ne figurent pas essentiellement dans la sélection. On exclut la mise en scène d’un extrait, en se limitant à des gestes sobres, naturels et spontanés sans l’utilisation de costumes ou de déguisements.
