The
annual Clear Lake Symphony Youth Concerto Competition was started twenty
two years ago at the suggestion of area piano teacher, Lorraine
Merrill. The Competition is limited to contestants in the
Houston/Galveston Metro area & designed to enhance performance before a live audience accompanied
by a symphony orchestra. Students are judged in junior and senior
divisions to provide maximum opportunity for students of various ages and
advancements. Past winners of the Competition have been accepted at
Julliard, The Eastman School of Music, Curtis Institute, and other high
quality music conservatories. In addition to providing an
opportunity to perform with the Clear Lake Symphony, the orchestra assists
these young musicians with scholarship awards.
