• Have won top prizes in reputable music competitions at the regional, national, or international level.

• Have been accepted into advanced music programs through competitive auditions (e.g., youth orchestras, chamber ensembles, music festivals, or camps).

• Have passed high-level music examinations (e.g., ABRSM Grade 7 or higher, National Guild Auditions with commendation, or equivalent).

• Demonstrate exceptional skill or accomplishment through other achievements, which will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

• Submit video recordings (e.g., YouTube or similar) that clearly demonstrate high-quality solo performance. These will be reviewed at the discretion of the selection committee.
  
  

Age and Maturity Consideration

• Applicants will be evaluated within appropriate age groups to ensure fair comparison and suitability for live performance in a senior community setting.

• Performers must demonstrate the maturity and stage presence necessary to engage respectfully with the audience and environment.
  
  

Availability and Commitment

• Volunteers must be willing to commit to scheduled performances and arrive prepared and punctual.

• Preference may be given to applicants who express flexibility in scheduling and interest in performing more than once.
  
  

Slot Allocation

• In instances where multiple qualified applicants apply for the same performance opportunity, selection will prioritize the most advanced and experienced performers in order to maintain the quality of programming.

• Applicants not selected for a specific opportunity may be considered for future performances.
