008 ETC - Extra Time Coupon

Certain Instrumental Events (marked with an asterisk) and Seniors (50 Plus) Events can have an extra time component added to the time limit.

In any one year's competitions one competitor may purchase no more than ONE of these coupons - equivalent to 2 extensions of 1 minute to each of 2 events OR a maximum of 2 minutes to one event.

Indicate in the first box the number of an event for which a 2 minute ETC is to be applied.   If the ETC is to be spread over two events put the number of each event in the two supplied boxes.

Such coupons are designed to make it possible for students who are already preparing works for other events (such as the HSC or an AMEB examination) to include performances of these works in their Eisteddfod presentations, without the need to make musically undesirable cuts to these works.

ALL COMPETITORS SHOULD REALISE THAT THE TIME RECORDED BY COMPETITORS USING an ETC  ON THESE EVENTS WILL BE CAREFULLY NOTED SO THAT both extended and regular performances do not exceed their time limits.

NOTE: In the Featured Composers sections competitors in 260A and 260B may apply to the piano convenor  (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) if a work already being prepared is longer than the allowed time limit. Once the piano convenor has given approval the ETC may be taken out - and noted in the checkbox of the entry
