Congratulations to Kevin Shen! Kevin was one of the NVMTA Piano Concerto Competition winners. He was chosen to perform 3rd movement of Mendelssohn Piano Concerto with the Amadeus Orchestra of McLean under the direction of Scott Wood. The audience was extremely impressed and appreciative of the great talent exhibited by six students who were selected for this performance.
Prior to the concert, the director met with the students and audience members to give a little background about their pieces and talk with the students about some of their interests in addition to music.
Congratulations to Kevin Shen and Nam Tran on their stellar performances at the Virginia Northern District Auditions! Kevin will represent Northern Virginia in the State Auditions at the VMTA Fall Conference.
