The selection and availability of competent adjudicators is an integral component of each Festival, and we have been very fortunate over the years to obtain the services of some of the most qualified musicians in all of the disciplines included in our programs.

In their assessment of each performer - often mixed with a good deal of humor and camaraderie, - they offer sound advice and encouragement to the countless thousands of young musicians who participated, which no doubt encourage each to pursue their love of music.
