By: Scottsdale Philharmonic Violinist Papandrea took first place for string instruments; The most talented students from Rosie's House are nominated by faculty and compete within their department in the annual competition. Judging is based on performance at the student's skill level and for the piece they are performing – not overall who is the best or most advanced. Judges are outside educators, musicians and arts advocates throughout the community. The first, second and third place students from each department performed at a free showcase concert in April and the first place winners from each department were featured at the Rosie's House Annual Ovation Gala.
