Glacier Symphony and Chorale scholarships offered

Glacier Symphony and Chorale annually awards music scholarships to students in grades 9 to 12, including graduating seniors. The program encourages student participation in the Glacier Symphony and Chorale and assists those student musicians in pursuing a career or an avocation in music. The award of scholarships is based on musical ability and potential as determined by the scholarship committee.

Students who have played with the Glacier Symphony for at least three concerts during a regular season or who are on the permanent orchestra substitution list, or those who have sung in the Glacier Chorale are eligible to apply. 

In addition, when funds are available, “at-large” scholarships may be provided to outstanding music students, who show exceptional ability but have not yet had the opportunity to perform with the Glacier Symphony and Chorale.  Scholarships must be used for students to further their musical career through camps, private lessons, or college tuition.

Applications are available at www.gscmusic.org by clicking the Education tab. They must be postmarked by April 15 to be considered and should be mailed to: GSC Scholarship Committee, P.O. Box 2491, Kalispell, MT 59903 or delivered to the GSC office at 69 N. Main Street in Kalispell.

The recipients will be announced at the Glacier Symphony and Chorale May 10-11 concerts. Graduating senior awards will be presented at the student’s high school spring awards assembly.
