Award winning Choral Conductor James Pinhorn has this to say about 'blind choral competitions' (where the adjudicators are given a recording of the artists and no other information):
"I just love that it is a blind competition. I read the adjudications like no other and apply them every year because they cannot possibly be biased in any way. It is a colleague just listening to the music and offering feedback; no visual to distract, and no “agenda” for want of a better word."
Congratulations on your success in the National Music Festival - Federation of Canadian Music Festivals James! ... See more
