The Fall Youth Concerto Competition provides the opportunity for outstanding young instrumentalists, ages 8-14, to compete for the honor of performing with the Madison Symphony Orchestra. The winners will perform with maestro John DeMain and the MSO at the Fall Youth Concerts on Tues Nov 24 and will receive a scholarship to attend the UW-Madison Summer Music Clinic. The chance to polish a concerto movement and to perform before a larger audience can be the turning point in the life of a young musician. Preparing for the competition gives budding musicians real-world experience in presenting their very best.
