CD accompaniment

As in previous years there is the option for soloists to perform with a CD/Mp3 accompaniment which hopefully will continue to encourage even more young (and older) musicians who do not have the facility to rehearse with a pianist to enter the competition.

The closing date for entries is 30th June 2012.
