In all disciplines and categories, competitors can perform pieces for woodwinds solo or pieces for woodwinds with piano accompaniment (perfomances with audio tape are not allowed!). It is also permitted to perform arrangements of compositions originally written for other instruments or instrumental bands. YAMAHA G3 Concert piano is available in the hall.
