Theme of singing competition on environment

First of all there is need to select a theme of such competition. Its theme should not be environment in general. If it is done so it will be so broad and one singer would be singing on climate change, other one on ozone layer depletion and third one on garbage pollution. In this way it will be so difficult to judge and rank their performances. You need to hold competition on narrow them. So there should be a punch line for such competition and all singers should write and sing their song on it. It may be “this land is my land”, “let’s make this world greener”, “keep planting trees” or “I love my oceans” etc.

Category of singers

All singers should be from same category to develop evenness in the competition. They may be amateur singers, promising young professional singers, students of a singing institute or child singers etc. But they must be from same category. In this way their ranking would be quite just and fair.

Writing, composing and singing

There are two types of singing competition. In one type singer has to write the song, compose it and sing it. In second category singer has to hire a writer and a composer and just to sing the song after it is written and composed. But the main participant of the competition will remain singer in both the cases. Yes credit of song writing and composing can be announced while announcing the name of winning singers.
