Two singers, including one from CCM, have won the Metropolitan Opera Council District Auditions held on Saturday at CCM. Jonathan Lasch, a CCM student, and Elizabeth Koontz, who attends IU, each won $1,000 and will go on to compete in the regionals on Jan. 19.
In addition, the judges gave three "encouragement" awards of $300 each to CCM singers Heather Phillips, Christopher Johnstone and Claire Maloney.

Post a Comment*Thank you, Janelle, and the volunteer committee, for making folks aware of this vocal treat. Young beautiful voices were there in abundance. It is worth stressing that this event occurs early every January. Winners from the district go to Lexington. Winners from the regionals go to New York and audition at the Metropolitan. WOW!
Just wanted to mention that Liz Koontz is from Cincinnati and graduated from Walnut Hills.
