I hope you are all enjoying the warmth of the holiday season!
As we start looking toward the new year and the 'monster' successes it will surely bring, I would like to take a moment to congratulate everyone on a fantastic Young Artist Competition Winner's Recital! What a thrill to see so many young talents in the beautifully modern and restored Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center for a second year. Every student outperformed our expectations of their skills and artistry; congratulations to all of the students, and to the dedicated teachers who stood behind these wonderful musicians!
Special thanks goes to our panel of distinguished Judges, and to the Young Artist Competition Committee members Lillian Livingston, Anli Young, Yining Wang, the lovely chairperson Beth Chen, and to everyone who helped keep things running smoothly backstage! Thank you so much for your hard work and energy!
As the year winds down to a close, or perhaps, to a new beginning, I hope you are all in the presence of loved ones, lovely moments of cheer, and a musical atmosphere that can lift your spirits!
