The Symphony Orchestra Concerto Competition takes place every year, and is open to students of all disciplines who are full-time students in the Mead Witter School of Music.  Students compete in preliminary rounds in each departmental area (strings, woodwinds, brass, piano, percussion, voice). The final round takes place in the Mead Witter Foundation Concert Hall. Each year, up to three winners are selected to perform their concerto, either in the following Spring or next Fall, with Symphony Orchestra.
