Summary of Past and Upcoming Events

Four students competed for cash awards in the newly revamped Joan Brown Scholarship Award on May 6th.  Congratulations to these pianists, whose score was determined by performance competency, community service, high school grade point average, and other considerations, including an oral interview.  These funds are proceeds from the annual music carnival.  Thanks to the teachers who prepared these students so well.


  On May 19th, our annual Ensemble Concerto Festival takes place at the downtown Seattle Sherman Clay, with individual and outstanding performance ribbons given for piano ensembles, instrumental with and without piano accompaniment, and concertos.  Some twenty concertos, most likely a record, are planned.
