November 2025 2025-2026 Khuner Young Artist Concerto Competition PSO is pleased to announce our winners of this year’s competition, both tremendously talented young violinists. For our January 25 concert, 14-year-old Noelle Lai will ring in the new year with Mendelssohn’s crowd-delighting Violin Concerto in E minor. And 16-year-old Kate Vo will help us ‘ring in’ the spring with Barber’s virtuosic Violin Concerto on March 22, 2026. Be sure to save the dates and join us in celebrating these extraordinarily talented young musicians! Interested in applying for next year’s competition? Visit our Application & Rules Page The Khuner Young Artist Concerto Competition, open to Bay Area string, woodwind, brass, harp and percussion players, has been a notable element in the Bay Area’s rich offering of opportunities for young musicians for over 30 years. Many gifted musicians, age 18 or younger, audition every year, seeking the exceptional opportunity to perform with a full symphony orchestra before a live and appreciative audience. The Competition Winner will gain the valuable experience of working with our Music Director, Eric Hansen , and will be featured on Prometheus Symphony’s website and in concert publicity. The Winner will receive a professional recording of the performance, a framed certificate, and a $300 award. Even the audition itself is a valuable educational experience for all who apply, as auditioning will be a significant aspect of aspiring musicians’ future careers. Each season, we are faced with the challenge of naming just one of the exceptionally talented auditioners as the competition winner, who will join our panoply of amazing past young artists, some of whom have been as young as 10. Our Previous Winners page has the program biographies and updates on their careers as leading musicians throughout the U.S. and abroad. Who is eligible ? Applicants must be 18 or younger on the audition date and ready to play from memory a complete concerto or concert work
