Concerto Competition 2017

We are very excited to be having our very first concerto competition this term! The application deadline had been posted as January 4th, but due to the weather yesterday as well as other concerns, we have extended the application deadline to January 11th.

Are you working on a concerto by Bach, Corelli, Vivaldi or any other composers who wrote for a solo instrument accompanied by strings? Imagine playing a movement of your concerto in a concert, with the Senior Singing Strings as your accompanying orchestra!

An accomplished panel of judges (TBA) will be listening to all the entries and picking our performers on February 4th.

Attached are PDF and Word versions of both the application form and the Concerto Competition information form.

If you have any questions, please email singingstringspei@gmail.com for more information.
