2022 Recipient of High School Performance Scholarship is CHRISTOPHER SHIN, student of Veda Zuponcic.
Three scholarships are offered to high school seniors who will be pursuing music study in college with one of the following majors: Performance, Music Education or Pedagogy and Composition. At the 2022 NJMTA State Conference, the Performance category recipient will perform one of their selections, the Music Education/Pedagogy category recipient will read their essay, and the Composition category recipient will arrange to have their composition(s) performed with live performers on acoustic instruments. If there is more than one recipient in any category, then the award will be shared. For each category recipient, one half of the scholarship amount will be awarded in the student’s first semester of college music study, and the second half will be awarded in their second semester. Awards are contingent upon the student’s continuation of their college major.
