Week of April 5, 2010 Issue 12 no. 2
Next Thursday, April 15, 2010, winners of the New York Music Competition (NYMC) will perform at the world renowned Carnegie Hall. The YWCA of Queens is proud to collaborate with The Korean Daily in completing the competition's 13th year. The participants and the competition have matured for over a decade to create an atmosphere that sets itself apart from other competitions. Some occurrences that stand out from this year's competition are:
· First place violinist, Ji Soo Kim, of Category D was accompanied by her pianist brother, a past winner, making this a family affair.
· Friends John Lee and Jean Kim went head to head to both place first.
· Past winners are now being accompanied by orchestras in their recitals.
This competition will continue to promote youth's appreciation of music and give opportunities for young people to showcase their musical talents.
