Robert Hu (Peninsula HS), violin;
Elliott Pearce (PVHS), trombone;
Quentin Thelen (PVHS), piano (with accompanists).

The judging committee included Dave Moyers, Wally Christmas, John Turner & Chuck Klaus. After intensive discussion and comparison, the winners were determined to be:

First-Place: Quentin Thelen (PVHS), piano;

Special thanks and congratulations to all 4 talented student contestants! Thanks also to the 4 judges, and especially to Audrey Dahlgren for her work in recruiting and organizing this event.
