Schedule and contest details

Tir Righ Bardic Championship

Declaration of intention is due ASAP. Everyone must apply via email to the current Bardic Champion and not in person. You are not signed up until you hear conformation of participation via email from the current champion. Format and Expectations:The competitors must perform three pieces (pieces may be vocal, instrumental, or verbal) in front of a panel of judges during the day on Saturday. One of the pieces must be heavily documented and will be assessed. The other two pieces are required to have at least minimal documentation. The other two pieces can be in 'sca style' but 'sca style' is not modern music, and filks are discouraged. Performers must be prepared to perform in front of a large audience as part of the competition; this is to prepare for being the coveted Tir Righ Bardic Champion. The competitors are encouraged to use at least two contrasting pieces to show their range of performance ability (warning: You will be asked what contrast you are using!). Performers are encouraged to watch the entire competition to learn and get a feel for the other talents in the principality. The winner will be announced at court the following day. A note to the populace: Bardic is a spectator sport and on-lookers are welcome!

Sincerely, Lady Danika Poecile du Lenora(The current Bardic Champion)
