Our adjudicators will be looking for a student from all Sections, who exhibits potential and a love of performance, whilst maintaining the Cecchetti qualities of a pure, simple and unaffected natural style. The three winners of the Award will perform a solo at our Teachers Refresher Day next year. A fourth award will be presented to a male student entered in any of the three sections and finally the Bloch Improvisation Encouragement Award.
