Awards

Special Awards

 

Lynda Rehder Kennedy Award

 

Since 2005, one piano student participating in the Festival has been chosen by the adjudicator to receive this prestigious award of excellence in memory of Lynda Rehde Kennedy.  The $250 cash award is sponsored by Neil Kennedy.

 

Nancy Hughes Memorial Award (New)

 

This cash award of $100 will be given to a student participating in both Strings and Piano Disciplines, (solos, duets or ensembles).  The recipient will be determined by combining their highest mark from one of their piano classes with the highest mark from one of their piano classes.  The student with the highest combined total will win the award.  This award is in memory of Nancy Hughes and is sponsored by Jones Music Studios.

 

Trish Schweitzer Volunteer Award

 

This award is presented to honour the memory of a long-time volunteer with the Festival, Trish Schweitzer.  Each year this award will be given to one of our volunteers to recognize their service.

 

Multi-Discipline Award

 

To be eligible, a participant must take part in more than one discipline, and their performances must include at least one solo (example solo piano, and flute ensemble). There are two awards available Junior (10 and under) and Senior (11 and over). There is a $50 cash award for each.  These awards are sponsored by The Kiwanis Music Festival and Friends of the Festival.
