Failure to follow any of these exact instructions will result in immediate disqualification of the entry: ​The email must be sent to: info@tdlainstruments.com. ​The email subject line must be exactly, word-for-word: TDLA 2026 CharcheTuba Drop Entry ​The body of the email must contain only: Your full legal name, exact date of birth, complete mailing address (including country), phone number, and a statement of exactly 50 words (no more, no less) explaining why you are passionate about Banda music. ​Limit one (1) entry per person, regardless of the method of entry.
