Awards in Excellence Auditions were held April 15, 2017 at Arizona Piano.  The Winners Recital took place one week later on April 22, 2017. Students played two leveled  memorized pieces from DVMTA' s Repertoire List and were scored by selected adjudicators. There were 67 students from 12 DVMTA teachers who participated. Many thanks to Alayne Favreau, Fei Xu, Hong Zhu, Lori Weidemann and Wendi Heslop for organizing the details.

​The auditions...they're ready to go, and maybe a little nervous!
There were two Winners Recitals, at 1:30 p.m. and 2:45 p.m. Students performed beautifully, and were well prepared. Congratulations to all who participated and to those who won and received Honorable Mention. 
DVMTA was happy to award the Janeen Noble Outstanding Music Student Award to Rebecca Eldredge, student of Lorri McHardy.
