Concerto/Aria Competition
Every year, 正澳门六合彩开奖结果 students are invited to compete for the opportunity to perform as a soloist with one of our major instrumental ensembles (Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Band, Sinfonietta, or Jazz Band). The competition takes place in early November, and the winning performer is scheduled for a concert in the spring semester. The three judges are hired from outside of 正澳门六合彩开奖结果 to ensure impartiality.

- All current 正澳门六合彩开奖结果 students (excepting those who won the competition in the previous year) are eligible to compete. Competitors are still eligible if they expect to graduate before the concert.
- A student may compete in the same year on two unrelated instruments (e.g. trumpet and voice), but not on two related instruments (e.g. oboe and English horn).
