Auditions open for Minot Symphony’s Young Artist Competition

For one young musician, the spotlight is about to shine a little brighter. The Minot Symphony Orchestra is hosting its annual Young Artist Competition, offering high schoolers the chance to perform as a featured soloist with the full symphony — and earn a $2,000 scholarship toward a music degree at Minot State. It’s not just a contest; it’s a rare opportunity to turn practice and passion into something unforgettable. Applications close Nov. 21, with live auditions set for Dec. 9. Kyona Rivera with KMOT has the full story.
