Young Musicians Take The Stage At The Kansas City Symphony

In the second part of Wednesday's Central Standard, we'll talk with Stephanie Brimhall, Education Manager at the Kansas City Symphony, about the Young Artist Competition.

This weekend, on stage at Helzberg Hall at the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts, young musicians will compete in the final round. Violinists Caleb Thill and Emily Shehi and vocalist Rudy Dibble also join us in the studio to discuss their musical backgrounds - and their hopes and fears about the competition.

Final round of the Young Artist competition, Saturday, February 9, 2013, 11 am, Helzberg Hall, Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts.  The event is free and open to the public. Reservations are required to attend. Find out more here.
