Congratulations to all the students who auditioned for the 2014 Valeria Finzi Memorial Scholarship Award on May 4, 2014 in Pasadena.  Whether they received awards or not, they all gained valuable experience in auditioning, which will be needed if they decide to pursue music in college and/or professionally! 

Congratulations also to their families and their teachers, who have supported and nurtured their efforts!

Awards will be presented at the May 17, 2014 Spring Fling, at which we look forward to hearing these remarkable young musicians perform! (Get your tickets now!)
