The opportunity to polish and perform a work for a larger audience can be the turning point in the life of a young artist. Each fall, Wisconsin students ages 8-14 (through grade 8), come together for the Madison Symphony Orchestra's Fall Youth Concerto Competition. Preparing for the competition gives budding musicians real-world experience in presenting their very best. The top two winners have the honor of appearing as soloists with the MSO at the Fall Youth Concerts and receive scholarships to attend the UW-Madison's Summer Music Clinic.
