Every winter, the Redlands, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Temecula Valley MTAC branches hold the Inland Empire Festival. This festival is a themed competition, this year being Contemporary composers. Students were required to perform original compositions for a panel of professionals that judged on technical and interpretive ability and artistic presentation. These students were judged and awarded for the highest standard of performance. Congratulations to the following students!
