Strad comp

Bree was selected to participate in the Stradivarius competition Utah division. 


She had to play two contracting Bach Sonatas and a Paganini, a show piece and a movement of a Concerto. She was accompanied by the amazing Koji Atwood (someone to google), he graduated from both Curtis and Juilliard.
Her program was
 Bach Sonata #3 in C Largo & Allegro Assui
Paganini Caprice #9
Polonaise Brillante No.1 In D Major Op.4  Henryk Wieniawski
Bruch: Violin Concerto #1 In G Minor, Op. 26 - 3. Finale: Allegro Energic  



She ended up placing 5th, quite an accomplishment considering her competition.



She got to meet one of her favorite violinists, Andres Cardneas. He was very kind he sent her some of his Cds later and told her teacher he was impressed with her.
