Winners

The long awaited results of the SILVERSTEIN CLARINET CONTEST are finally here!
 
It was another successful celebration of talent filled with vibrant bursts of energy and individuality from all parts of the world.
 
The level of competition was especially high this year, and it was apparent that each and every contestant, as well as the judges, really gave it their very best. For this reason, we’ve added a new category of winners called “Special Recognition” to acknowledge a few extra talents worth highlighting.
 
We are grateful to every contestant for blessing us with their talent, hard-work, and passion. We applaud their courage to stand tall on the world stage and let their music speak.
 
And a special thank you to this year’s judges for allowing time in their schedules to make this contest happen. Year after year, our judges play a vital role in upholding a high standard for integrity, transparency, and fairness. This contest simply cannot exist without their selflessness and love for the future generation of clarinet.
 
Without further ado, please help us congratulate the winners of the sixth annual SILVERSTEIN CLARINET CONTEST ! – 
 
 

Sincerely,

Calvin Son/ President & CEO
