The BBC is looking for young classical musicians with star quality to take part in a brand new TV competition. The competition will be filmed and shown in a major new BBC TV series produced by Shine Limited.
The prize is a recording contract with marketing campaign to launch the winner as a top-selling classical music star.
We are looking for students aged 19 or under who have reached at least Grade 8 standard.
From May 2007, we will be holding regional auditions around the UK to select talented young musicians who will attend a specialist residential music academy for three weeks during August. Here, they will receive specialist tuition, master-classes, and performance practice from first class music professionals.
The competition will be judged by an elite panel who are not only internationally renowned classical music experts but have a wealth of experience in recognising and nurturing new classical talent.
The finalists will perform at a prestigious concert venue, when the competition winner will be decided.
We want to make sure that every child who is eligible is aware of this competition, so if you know of a student who would fit the bill, please let them know about this.
To apply to audition for this once in a lifetime opportunity, students should visit our website www. classicalstar.tv where they can either apply online or download an application form.
Alternatively they can call 0871 210 8880. To be eligible students must be age 19 or under on 31 December 2007 with Grade 8 or equivalent and a UK resident with the right to work in the UK.
