Colorado State MTNA Performance and Competition Competitions

CSMTA is pleased to announce the completion of the CO MTNA competitions. 

The composition competition had talented participants at the Junior and Senior division level this year, and we are hopeful to encourage more applicants in the future. The performance competition took place at CU Boulder on Saturday, October 22, and we heard many talented participants in Piano, Voice, and Strings. The event was a huge success thanks to the help of our adjudicators, participants and volunteers!

We were honored to work with amazing judges, Garrett Christian, Dr. Bryan Chuan, Dr. Erika Eckert, Dr. Adam Ewing, Dr. Robert Hjelmstad, Dr. Ryan Jacobsen, Dr. Jessica Pacheco, Dr. Sarah Rushing, and Dr. Aaron Stampfl. You can find their information on our website.

We would like to thank CU Boulder, the CU Boulder Collegiate MTNA Chapter, and all of our volunteers: Cindy Allor, Dr. Alejandro Cremaschi, Ryan Hale, Jill Ice, Brenda Ishikawa, Er-Hsuan Li, Joyce Li, Elena Mathys, Sarah Rovner, Uri Ayn Rovner, Elizabeth Smith, Jasmine Steadman, Elizabeth Strickland, Abby Terrill, Amy Watt, and Tom White.

Additional thanks to Dr. Andrew Cooperstock, Dr. Jennifer Hayghe, and Dr. David Korevaar for sharing their studio spaces and assisting in securing our performance spaces. We were lucky to use the CU Boulder Imig Music Building for our competition!
