Announcing the Fischoff Educator Award
We are delighted to announce the launching of the Fischoff Educator Award, a complementary benchmark to the Fischoff Competition. This national award will recognize the educational outreach work of Fischoff Competition alumni who have demonstrated outstanding and imaginative programming for children and youth in the United States. The Educator Award will honor past Competition musicians who have established professional careers in chamber music, and have proven their ability to successfully build a career in both music performance and outreach education. Applications are due June 16, 2010. Are you or someone you know eligible?
