Clermont Street Volume 6, August 2016 | Page 6

I want to extend a very warm welcome to the newest additions to Clermont Street:

Ballet Ariel

and the

International Keyboard Odyssiad® and Festival.

Every year, the International Keyboard Odyssiad® & Festival transforms Fort Collins, CO into a cosmopolitan destination for the finest professional and rising star pianists in the world. For five days in July aspiring young artists compete in an

Olympic style format for the IKOF gold medal. IKOF is the ONLY piano competition that uses this format.

The evenings feature concerts by highly acclaimed artists such as Van Cliburn Gold Medalist Olga Kern, and the days are punctuated with master classes, workshops and other presentations. All activities are open to the public – competitions are free! Click HERE for more information and mark your calendar for 2017!

This is Madison. She is one of the Concerto finalists.

Besides being adorable, she's dynamite on the piano!
