2013 Peterson Vocal Competition
The Fourth Annual Peterson Vocal Competition is open to vocal artists who are undergraduates at Central Kentucky universities and colleges recommended by their voice teachers or choral directors.The first 35 applicants receive notice of their acceptance into the competition. After 35 applications are received, the later applicants will be acknowledged along with their standing on the waiting list. Distinguished professors of voice and opera from major universities will judge the competition. Believing that feedback from judges is important in competitions and crucial to the development of young singers, the 2013 Peterson Vocal Competition offers additional opportunities for contestants to consult with the judges. Following the competition, the judges will be on hand to distribute critique sheets and discuss each singer’s performance and offer guidance. All singers, their parents or guardians, and teachers are encouraged to remain and make the most of this opportunity.
A formal performance will be held on Sunday, November 10, 2013, the day after the competition. The top five finalists will perform for “A Musical Heritage Celebration in Memory of Dr.Roy P. Peterson”, a musical concert and charitable event to raise funds for arts and educational outreach for youth. Winners of the 2013 Peterson Vocal Competition will receive cash awards/stipends after the concert in the following amounts:
