Features of Festival:      A student’s Class (level) is determined by ability rather than age, school grade, or length of study.  Each student gains individual merit for his/her own accomplishments.  Rules and repertoire requirements are published in the Junior Festivals Bulletin (new one this year!).  Teachers also receive Junior Keynotes, a quarterly publication.
