Jean McCulloch Junior Competition

JEAN McCULLOCH MEMORIAL JUNIOR PIANO COMPETITION
North Battleford
Saturday, May 30, 2020

The Jean McCulloch Memorial Junior Piano Competition is made possible through the generous donation of Regina piano teacher Jean McCulloch. This competition recognizes the hard work and talent of Saskatchewan piano students working in grades three through eight. It will hopefully be a stepping-stone for students into the SRMTA senior level competitions. The Competition will travel throughout the province.

Should the number of entries require it, competition may begin Friday. In the event that there are not enough entries, the competition will be cancelled, and the adjudicator and competitors will be notified by April 3. The programme will be posted on the SRMTA website (www.srmta.com) after May 1.

Thank you to Long & McQuade Music (Regina) for sponsoring the Grade 7-8 award, and to St. John's Music for sponsoring the Grade 5-6 award.
