Competition – conditions, participants and requirements for them.

It’s worth saying right away that the competition is a festival held strictly within the framework of the state program, where all the rules, conditions and requirements are already spelled out, aimed at identifying new and gifted talents.

According to the charter, the organizer of the competition is the Moscow City Methodological Center itself. As for the actual date and time of the event, its timing is set by a specially created committee.

According to the charter, the special committee being created consists of employees of the methodological center of the city of Moscow.

If we say a few words about who can become a participant in this festival, this, of course, is all those interested in additional and general educational organizations, whose age is strictly from 5 to 18 years. After all participants are registered, the organizers necessarily divide them into two leagues, with their own characteristics. How to understand this?

  • Firstly, league No. 1. This includes children from kindergartens and general education organizations aged 5 to 7 years.
  • Secondly, 2 league. These are mainly children from general education organizations and creative groups aged 7 to 18 years.

Now let’s talk directly about the competition itself, which is usually divided into several stages, with their own characteristics, characteristics and conditions. What is the main essence of each individual stage?

  1. Stage 1. The start always takes place in September and October. What does it include? First of all, a review of all concert performances of different genres presented by all educational organizations is carried out. As a rule, these events are held within each institution taking part in the relay. Among all the presented participants, the jury selects the best and selects numbers for the 2nd round. Based on the results of this stage, the jury members must compile a multi-genre program from the numbers selected for the second stage.
  2. Phase 2. It is scheduled for the months of November, December and January. If you want to become a participant in this stage, then the main condition is still registration on the official website of the City Methodological Center. Remember, the registration process is carried out directly by the teacher himself, who bears all the responsibility. The entire concert program must necessarily take place according to a pre-drawn up and planned plan, the schedule of which is checked by the jury before the start. All tours must be held at a public level, and in order to participate in each of these tours, teams must prepare and present one performance in each individual age group. If you decide to do a performance in a foreign language, then the jury members must provide the lyrics of the song and its translation. The duration of the concert performance should not be more than 5 minutes, and in the case of literary reading - exactly 3 minutes. The results of this stage are accepted collectively. But all participants must be aware of what points can be deducted. What are these cases? This is aggression towards other festival participants or jury members, the use of profanity during a performance, the use of religious or political themes, the use of indecent gestures or shouts.

  3. Phase 3. Scheduled for February, March and April 2018. The final concert of the laureates is always held in April.

Now is the time to talk about the evaluation system and the work of the jury. The work of the jury is based directly on strictly established criteria, which are prescribed in the statutes. For example, you can include the following indicators and parameters in this list.

  1. Performance culture and artistry, craftsmanship.
  2. Aesthetic and artistic value of the room.
  3. The quality and complexity of the performance.
  4. Correspondence of the selected repertoire to the age of the performer.


As for genres, you should not assume or think that the competition and festival are held strictly in one direction. The list of the most popular genres of this festival includes the following. These are choral, vocal, instrumental, folklore, dance, original, ethnocultural performance, modern direction, artistic reading, performance of vocal and instrumental ensembles. Regarding the results themselves, the absolute winners in their genre and age category are those who score the maximum number of points in the ratings table. The winners are all those who took second, third and fourth place in the rating table.

As you can see, the arts festival is a competition in which every talented and gifted child should definitely try their hand at it, because this is a good opportunity to express themselves and their talent.
