Our excellent photographer <\/strong>Wendy <\/strong>has developed what we hope will be a more accessible system for dealing with photographs at the Festival.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our policy is straightforward and simple.\u00a0 Only the official photographer is allowed to record any performance.\u00a0\u00a0 There are many reasons: safeguarding young and vulnerable people is one; another is to preserve the professional integrity of any accompanist or other official.<\/p>\n

Every entrant is asked to include their permission or refusal to take photos.
\nUnless that permission is granted, photos are not taken.\u00a0 This permission, however, is for use of images for internal use only.\u00a0 We use them for publicity and display – or to send to sponsors and grant-giving bodies.\u00a0 We do not release the images to anybody<\/strong> <\/em>else!<\/p>\n

If you want to take advantage of the photos that are taken, you will be offered an additional permission sheet.\u00a0 As a parent or guardian, you can request copies of images of your child.\u00a0 (For practical and administrative reasons, we’ll ask you for a separate form for each day’s classes.)<\/em>\u00a0 Complete it and hand the form to the photographer.\u00a0 We’ll do our best to get the images to you as soon as reasonable.<\/p>\n

If the image is of a group of children (duets, trios, ensembles, choirs etc), further arrangements will be needed.\u00a0 Such an image may go to a school or a teacher who will determine whether the image can be shared.\u00a0 In the case of duets or trios, all performers must have the appropriate permission before we send images to any one of the group.<\/em><\/p>\n

Bear in mind that there is no guarantee that a photographer will be present at a session.\u00a0 Even if s\/he is there, there is no guarantee that any photo will be taken.<\/p>\n

If you have missed getting a form and you think that photo(s) were taken, then contact us below and we’ll see what we can sort out for you.<\/p>\n\n
