Subject: [Bards] Eisteddfod Format and Kingdom A&S

Greetings Performers of Ansteorra!
It is with great pleasure that I announce the format for Eisteddfod, which will 
be held at Kingdom A&S in the Barony of Bordermarch on February 9th, 2013. We 
are doing something a bit different this year, with regards to holding this 
championship in conjunction with Kingdom A&S, but I hope you will all enjoy and 
take advantage of the opportunity it will present to you. At this event, you 
will have the opportunity to compete in Eisteddfod, Kingdom A&S (as a 
performance entry), or BOTH, with one of your pieces (as outlined below). The 
Kingdom MOAS, Mistress Melisenda, and I have come up with the following joint 
plan to accomodate Eisteddfod and performance entries in Kingdom A&S.

If you wish to compete in Kingdom A&S as a performance entry, you will need to 
sign in with the Kingdom A&S registry ON SITE, and you will also be required to 
submit your documentation no later than January 26th by sending it to the 
Kingdom MOAS via postal mail or email at moas at ansteorra.org. You will also need 
to sign in with the Premier Bard ON SITE, to be added to the performance 
schedule.

If you wish to compete in Eisteddfod, you will need to sign in with the Premier 
Bard ONSITE, and are encouraged to email the Premier Bard by January 26th to 
notify him of your intent to compete (so we can approximate schedule times). His 

email address is alden_drake at sbcglobal.net. Documentation (5 copies please) 
should be given to the Premier Bard when you sign in.

If you wish to compete in both Kingdom A&S (performance entry) AND Eisteddfod, 
you will need to do BOTH of the above.

The performances will begin at 10:00am. Make sure you plan to be onsite early 
enough to warm up.

EISTEDDFOD format shall be as follows:

Round 1 - Audience Participation
The bards are asked to perform a piece that is a sing-along or some other piece 
to include audience participation, or teaching. Not all bards are singers, so 
other forms of performance should somehow get the audience involved.


Round 2 - Period/Period Style
For this round, written documentation for your piece is required. It can be a 
period piece, or a post-period piece written in period style. NOTE: If you are 
competing in Kingdom A&S as a performer, this piece will be judged for both 
competitions. 


Round 3 - Bard's Choice
Each bard is asked to bring their show-stopper piece.


KINGDOM A&S (Performances) shall be held in the same location as Eisteddfod, and 

to accomodate the Laurels judging performances, shall be scheduled at specific 
times during the Eisteddfod competition. If you are competing in only Kingdom 
A&S, your scheduled performance time may fall during any of the three Eisteddfod 

rounds.

If you have any questions about Eisteddfod, please email 
alden_drake at sbcglobal.net.
If you have any questions about Kingdom A&S, please email moas at ansteorra.org.

Thank you all and I look forward to enjoying the wonderful performances this 
kingdom has to offer.

With a song in my heart,
Alden Drake
Premier Bard

Eisteddfod is simply the Welsh word for a bardic competition. Kingdom Eisteddfod chooses the Premier Bard of Ansteorra for a year. You may compete if you will commit to doing the job - traveling around the kingdom, performing, telling tales to inspire Ansteorrans, telling of the greatness of Ansteorra and her people, encouraging and rewarding Ansteorran bards, etc.

This is exactly the reason why I'm not planning on competing this time -- I
know it will be seriously difficult for me to get down to Bordermarch, which
means that doing the travel component will be even more difficult. Until I
get back active again to a higher degree and get enough contacts to be able
to get around to places, I'm sitting them out.
The secondary reason is that I need to get back into the swing of SCA bardic
before I try to compete in a major competition.

Eisteddfod is simply the Welsh word for a bardic competition. Kingdom
Eisteddfod chooses the Premier Bard of Ansteorra for a year. You may compete
if you will commit to doing the job - traveling around the kingdom,
performing, telling tales to inspire Ansteorrans, telling of the greatness
of Ansteorra and her people, encouraging and rewarding Ansteorran bards,
etc.

http://bard.ansteorra.org/index.html is a good place to get started.  Under
the "Bards" tab, you can see past Kingdom Bards.  It's not completely up to
date, but a lot of the information on there is still good.

Please forgive the multiple postings.
On January 12, following Ansteorra's Crown Tourney, the Shire of the Shadowlands will be hosting a Snow Ball. While we already have virtual musicians ready and willing to play, it would be wonderful if we could have live musicians instead (or in addition.) We have three volunteer musicians so far, but more is better. If you play a musical instrument, and are planning to attend Crown Tourney, please plan to stay and play for the Ball as well. If you are planning to come, and would like to play for the Ball, please contact the event stewards at: 
shadowsteward at ymail.com
If you know of any musicians looking for a place to play who are not on these lists, please forward this to them.
Thank you for your time and attention.
