Prizes:

$15,000 in prizes plus solo appearances with orchestra in 2018–2019.

Additional Info:

Performers selected for the final round will be reimbursed for air travel to Los Angeles from their city of residence (anywhere in the world) and be offered housing with host families leading up to the final round. Rehearsal time with a pianist will be provided the day before the final round. Winners of the competition will also receive travel and housing covered leading up to their performances with us in our 2018-2019 season.

Any piece for instrumental or vocal soloist and orchestra is allowed. Because Kaleidoscope is a conductorless orchestra, you should apply with repertoire that you feel comfortable rehearsing and performing this way. 

The concerts with musicians selected to perform with us in our 2018-2019 season will be professionally audio and video recorded. Live recordings from most of our past performances are available on our YouTube page:
