Each year, the Winnipeg Youth Orchestras sponsors the WYO Adjudicated Scholarships Competition. There are three levels of competition (Junior, Intermediate and Senior Divisions) and three scholarships awards for each division.
The competition is open to any WYO member in good standing. Competitors perform a piece at the appropriate level for two experienced judges who will adjudicate each performance based on several criteria including accuracy, intonation, phrasing, dynamics, musicality and overall presentation.
The WYO Scholarships Competition is an excellent performance opportunity for students. All orchestra members are encouraged to participate, especially those WYO members who may not as yet had the experience of performing in an adjudicated competition. Each competitor receives a written adjudication mailed to them after the competition.
The First Place Scholarship winner in the Senior Division will be featured in WYO’s annual “Wintertide” concert. In addition, this winner will also be featured as a soloist for the WYO “Sounds of Spring” Concert. Congratulations to all the Scholarships Competition winners for the 2020-21 season.
The 2021-22 Winnipeg Youth Orchestras Adjudicated Scholarships Competition will be held on December 3rd and 4th, 2021.
The Registration Deadline is on or before Nov. 7th.
