The YWCA of Queens just hosted its annual New York Music Competition in March. Selecting the winners was especially challenging this year as all of the contestants displayed a tremendous amount of talent. We are especially pleased to announce a grand prize winner, Yun Han, who participated in the cello division; she will be the 7th grand prize winner since we began the New York Music competition 16 years ago. She will be given an opportunity to have a solo recital at the YWCA of Queens separate from the winners’ concert. Please visit our NYMC page for a complete list of winners!
The winners concert will take place at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall on April 25th, 2013. Tickets ($20) can be purchased at the Carnegie Weill Hall Box Office or online http://www.carnegiehall.org/.
