Congratulations to two of our 2016 senior vocal majors who both advanced to finals at the UK Alltech Vocal Scholarship Competition. Quentin Prewitt and Hannah Hetzel-Ebben both advanced to finals. Participation in the competition is by invitation only as a result of an outstanding audition for the UK School of Music. The competition held on March 6, at the UK Singletary Center is a top scholarship competition for young singers.
Quentin received an encouragement award worth $5000 and all participants received $1000 scholarship for participation. Both of these young women sang beautifully and represented Lafayette, SCAPA and their voice studios well. We're so proud of your accomplishments!
