Spring II Honors Recital

MacPhail Honors Recitals are distinguished student recitals. Student audition before a panel of faculty judges in order to be selected for the recital. The judges’ decisions and selection of performers is based on the demonstrated musical and artistic merits of the student at the age and ability level performed during the audition. MacPhail values artistry and musicianship: anything performed artistically and musically is eligible to be selected.

Congratulations to the students (and their teachers) who were selected to play at the Spring II Honors.
