SUMMARY:Solo String Festival
DESCRIPTION:Key to Change presents its annual Solo String Festival for middle and high school violin and viola students. Held each year at Benaroya Hall, the Solo String Festival offers students far more than a traditional performance opportunity. Designed as a conference-style experience rather than a competition, the festival creates a safe, inclusive, and affirming environment where young musicians of varied backgrounds and musical levels are welcomed, supported, and celebrated. Students perform on one of the region’s most renowned stages while being introduced to a culture of excellence that emphasizes growth, artistry, self-awareness, and leadership.\nStudents will perform their prepared repertoire on stage at the Illsley Ball Nordstrom Recital Hall for a panel of distinguished judges from across the country, receiving individualized feedback and coaching. All students are eligible to receive awards and are encouraged to observe and support their peers throughout the festival. In addition to performances, students will participate in a series of masterclasses led by a cohort of multidisciplinary artists.\nThere is a $25 application fee. Each student will receive a limited-edition event t-shirt, lunch and snacks during the festival, and additional rehearsal time with piano accompaniment leading up to the event. Each student will also receive a Certificate of Recognition following their performance.\nLearn more about the Solo String Festival on our webpage here ( https://www.keytochangestudio.org/solo-string-festival/ ).\n
