Grand Prize Competition:
We are delighted to announce that this year’s Grand Prize Competition will be on July 14th (Strings) and July 21th (Piano) 2024 at Azusa Pacific University. This could not have happened without the invaluable help of Dr. Andrew Park. We are extremely grateful for the time and effort he contributed to our community and to musical development in youth.
Due to the gracious contributions from all of our sponsors, all the cash prizes for our Grand Prize scholarships and the scholarship of Montecito International Music Festival are once again available this year.
