Welcome!

We look forward to seeing you at the Pathways Program, presented by the Canadian Music Competition – Southern Alberta Committee. We hope you enjoy your experience!

What to Bring

  • Physical copies of all sheet music or scores, bound and in performance order with measure numbers clearly marked at beginning of each line.

  • These are required for copyright compliance, as clinicians will use printed copies.

  • Your class order and session time will be sent via email in mid-to-late March.

Arrival & Check-In

  • Enter through the front doors on Scarboro Avenue.

  • Please arrive early for check-in.

  • Enter and exit quietly through designated doors, as performances will be in progress throughout the day.

What to Expect

  • Volunteers and the Project Coordinator will be available to greet and guide you.

  • Sessions will take place in two venues: the Chapel and the Sanctuary.

  • Family and friends are welcome to attend. (Audience in the Chapel is limited to 16 guests including participants, due to capacity.)

Warm-Up

  • Two warm-up spaces will be available. Please note that neither space contains a piano.

Performance Guidelines

  • Sanctuary: Enter the stage from the front of the church (a volunteer will assist).
