Schimmel Pianoforte and Instrumental Solos Update

Schimmel Pianoforte and Instrumental Solos Update It is with great regret that the Royal South Street Society have decided to cancel the 2020 Schimmel Pianoforte and Instrumental Solos Live Competitions.

Our decision comes after the recent government announcement to lock down Metropolitan Melbourne for a minimum of six weeks, and the current increase in cases. A large percentage of our entrants, and our adjudicators, are affected by this lockdown. We are also concerned about the uncertainly of this ever-changing environment, including our wish to do what is right for Ballarat residents and reduce the inflow of visitors to our town.

Entrants have been given the option of submitting a video entry for each of their sections to receive a full critique from one of our highly respected adjudicators, a certificate of participation and an opportunity to showcase their talents on our website.

We wish everyone a safe and healthy year and thank everyone for their support. We can’t wait to see you all in person again next year.

Kind Regards The Royal South Street Society 29th July 2020
