In January 2023, we held our first Mary G. Roebling Youth Concerto Competition. 17 music students between the ages of 12-18 auditioned for our distinguished panel of judges. Each student received feedback and a ticket to our March 18th concert where our winner, 14 year old Angela Zhang, performed Beethoven’s 3rd concerto with our orchestra at the War Memorial Ballroom. This was such a great success that we plan to continue to offer this competition annually.
