  Good morning,

  Each year, my studio holds a Piano Olympics for students wishing to take part 
in a piano competition.  There are various events, but the high point is 
probably the Composition Division, in which students compose an original piece 
which is evaluated by a judge.  This year, twelve students took part, and they 
all used SONAR to create their musical works.  The results range from the 
humorous or spooky to the truly beautiful.  The students ranged in age from 7 
to 17 and ran the gamut from beginners to advanced.

  This year's Composer of the Year was a 9-year-old who created a piece for 
koto, shakuhachi, oboe, vibes, percussion and synthesizer.  We're all looking 
forward to what she and others will compose next year.

  Stephanie Pieck
