Credit will be given for choice of programme, presentation and platform manner, and performing from memory, in addition to normal criteria.

Competitors may not present items in the Intermediate Recital class which they are performing elsewhere in the Festival.

The award may be witheld if, in the opinion of the adjudicators, adequate standards are not reached.
