Classical Kids

Home > About > Classical Kids

KVNO has been honoring students in the metro area who excel at playing, singing or composing for over 20 years.

We name a new Classical Kid every month, awarding them a $300 scholarship from the Soener Foundation in memory of Mary Belle Soener to be used for anything related to performing or learning music. Our monthly winners also receive other great gifts and perform in our annual Classical Kids Showcase.
