SPRING SOLO COMPETITION
In the spring, we host a solo competition in which students can perform various solo literature for a panel of judges to compete with other students for a prize. Some of our prizes include cash, discounts towards summer camp tuition, and more!
We have had the pleasure of working with composers such as Kevin Day, JaRod Hall, and Dr. Chris Sharpe, who have all written original solos for our students to play in these competitions.
