Dear Piano Students and Teachers:
I am excited to tell you about the first annual Hanna Powell Memorial Piano Competition on Saturday, January 22, 2022 at Sanford Performing Arts Center. This is an open competition for performers ages 15-30 who live or study in Maine. The application deadline is December 15.
Cash prizes will be awarded as follows: 1st Place – $2,000 / 2nd Place – $1,500 / 3rd Place – $1,000. In an effort to also attract performers at the high school level, we are also offering a $1,000 High School Honor Prize for the top high school student, which may be awarded in addition to a 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place prize.
The Hanna Powell Memorial Piano Competition is part of the 1st annual Maine Piano Festival, a three-day celebration which includes the following events at Sanford Performing Arts Center:

I have attached the flyer for the Hanna Powell Memorial Piano Competition to this message. Please share this competition with your students or any other pianists who may qualify to participate!
The goal of the competition is to inspire and recognize young performers in Maine. To that end, we are trying to remove all barriers for competitors. There is no application fee and only those who live or study in Maine may participate.
Thank you for your help in sharing this event!

The Bangor Symphony is auctioning off a beautiful Schimmel piano. It belonged to Marianne Lynch and Dr. Robert Hand. Brian Catell appraised it at $40,000 and the opening bid is $15,000. Please help spread the word. Hopefully there is someone out there in the market for a piano.
