FOLK INSTRUMENTS SECTION

This category is designed to bring enjoyment to the musicians who play these instruments. Newfoundland and Labrador has a rich heritage in playing folk instruments. Irish, French and Scottish ancestry is evident in the style that tunes are played. The majority of people playing these instruments have little or no professional training. Learning is done by watching others and mimicking their style. This method often creates slight differences in the tunes with there not being a right or wrong. It is difficult to put these styles on paper, so tunes are often passed down through generations by playing with elders or listening to recordings. Very often they are played for jamming sessions, dances, kitchen parties and concerts. Jigs, reels & waltzes are some of the types of music played by these instruments. Allowance of microphones and sound check if needed for this category. Entrants in these Classes will be judged on the discrimination shown in their selection and group arrangement, having regard to contrast, keys, technique, timing, and note precision. This category will be open to School entries as well as Adult Solo Classes, Ensembles, Bands &Groups. This is a NON-COMPETITIVE category. Instruments in this section are: Accordion, Bagpipe, Banjo, Bodhran, Bouzouki, Concertina, Fiddle, Guitar Non-Classical, Mandolin, Tin whistle, Ukulele. TIME LIMIT FOR EACH CLASS: Two songs – 10 minutes. Three songs – 20 minutes.

Level system for this category

Senior level .............................................................. five years and over experience

Intermediate…………………… ...................................... three to five years’ experience

Junior……………………………… ...................................... one to three years’ experience
