NFMC competitions
on: July 08, 2015, 10:00:04 PM
Dear All,
has anyone of you participated (or maybe your students) at NFMC competitions?
Could you please give me some information about it? How does the whole thing look like? Do you send the tape to qualify or is there a preliminary round?  Do you perform in front of judges and audience? Who are the judges? Who are participants? Is the level of playing high? I am specifically interested in the competition where there is no age limit.  Any piece of information would be highly appreciated! :)
