General Information
The ASOM Festival is designed to Nurture, Inspire, Celebrate and Encourage music students in Calgary. The vision of the Festival is to engage both emerging musicians, as well as music students of all levels. The repertoire includes genres of music from a wide range of composers, and suggestions from the participants. This year, Festival classes are offered for Piano, Violin, Viola and Cello students in Calgary. Through goal setting, dedicated work, and commitment, students are positively changed in a way that enriches them for the rest of their lives. Certificates along with written and verbal feedback will be given to all participants.
Class categories:
- Strings (all levels)
- Piano (Prep – Level 5)
- Piano (Level 6 and up)
If you wish to participate in the festival please speak with your teacher. They will have access to the Festival Syllabus containing rules and regulations for each class. Please note that students are responsible for their own festival registration. Class space is limited. No exceptions can be made once a class is full.
2023 ASOM Festival Update: We are pleased to offer our 2023 ASOM Festival in-person and online this year. We hope that this will allow families the option to participate at their own comfort level. In-person classes will be held on Saturday, March 18th, 2023. Online entries will be adjudicated and posted on Sunday, March 19th.
Please note that in-person classes will have limited spacing. In-person sessions will be capped at 6 participants per session. We ask that only the participant attends the in-person festival. We will send out a zoom room link for parents to observe the class virtually in real time.
