The idea

At the artistic director’s invitation, Leif led an effort to widen the range of composers in the Jackie McGehee Young Artist Competition’s catalog.

Who it’s for

Young competitors and the communities the competition serves.

What happened

New venues and partners, better scheduling and live streaming, and grant writing for the launch of the Legacy Campaign.
