CELEBRATING 67 YEARS
May 13 to May 18, 2012

The Board of Trustees of Musicfest Northwest expresses its appreciation to Verne Windham and KPBX Public Radio
for many years of continued support to the festival: Master of Ceremonies for our evening concerts, Live studio performances of Musicfest Northwest participants, Recording and broadcasting evening concerts and generous on-air promotion.

Visit http://www.kpbx.org for live stream of live performances of selected Musicfest Northwest entrants on Verne Windham's morning show 10am -12noon and to listen to podcasts of the entire week's performances.

Since 1946, the Festival was organized to encourage, develop and improve the performance of young musicians and dancers through professional adjudication and aid young people to study music and the arts. Entrants in the Festival receive an individual written and oral evaluation of their performance by qualified teachers and concert artists. The public is welcome to enjoy over 1,000 performances by varying age and skill levels Sunday through Friday on Gonzaga University campus and learn from the adjudicators' comments and master teaching.
