KEARNEY – Three University of Nebraska at Kearney students were selected as winners of the 2024 Concerto/Aria Competition.
Daniel McCarty of Kearney, Mio Momosaki of Nagoya, Japan, and Jacob Cahill of North Platte won the event conducted Oct. 3 in UNK’s Fine Arts Recital Hall.
The Concerto/Aria Competition recognizes and celebrates outstanding student performers at UNK while providing opportunities for professional growth. Each fall, student competitors perform for a jury of UNK music faculty during a public concert. Winners earn the privilege of performing with one of the large, instrumental ensembles on campus.
McCarty will perform as a soloist with the UNK Wind Ensemble during a May 1 concert. Momosaki and Cahill will both perform as soloists with Kearney Symphony Orchestra.
