We’re honored to see our artists honored, and this year many of our artists have been selected as finalists in The American Prize.
The American Prize National Nonprofit Competitions in the Performing Arts is described as “the nation’s most comprehensive series of online contests in the musical and theater arts. The American Prize is nonprofit, unique in scope and structure, and is designed to evaluate, recognize and reward the best performers, ensembles and composers in the United States based on submitted recordings.”
