Young Artists Competition

Our young artists competition is currently on hiatus.

For two seasons we were proud to support the Young Artists Competition in partnership with Florian Leonhard Fine Violins. Students ages 13 - 18 auditioned through a multi-phase application and blind screening process, with finalists performing at a string concert. The finalists judged by world-class musicians, including Anna Rabinova of the New York Philharmonic, Philip Lasser, Professor at Julliard; Sam Rhodes of the Juilliard Quartet, and celebrated member of Bang on the Can All Stars, Ashley Bathgate. The winner of the competition received a scholarship, a solo engagement with the WHCO at our May 18, 2017 concert with the use of a fine instrument courtesy of Florian Leonhard Fine Violins.

The two winners of the Young Artists Competition were Coco Mi (2017) and Jun Lin (2018).
