This beloved community event is returning since its last appearance in 2006!! . This one and only unique creation features a concert of outstanding youth chamber groups, in the spirit of great chamber music playing, while doing a spoof on the idea of music competition! A spoof of a contest, each ensemble vies to distinguish themselves with their own theme, costumes and props. -even ‘bribing’ of the judges are all the norm! The bribes are just for fun: - every group wins a personalized award based on their creativity.
