Music enthusiasts and emerging young talents, mark your calendars for an inspirational evening with the U.S. Army Orchestra. The "Sounds of Life" concert will showcase the exceptional abilities of the winners of the 2024 U.S. Army Orchestra Young Artist Competition. The event is set to take place on May 17 at the esteemed Rachel M. Schlesinger Concert Hall and Arts Center located at 4915 E Campus Dr, Alexandria, VA.

This year's competition, which is currently in its 19th iteration, has been a beacon of opportunity for aspiring musicians in the Washington DC metro area. The contest will culminate in a performance where two victorious young artists—one from the Strings Division and another from the Woodwind/Brass/Percussion Division—will have the honor of playing alongside the U.S. Army Orchestra.

The concert not only celebrates the competition winners but also features Finalists and select Honorable Mentions, providing them with the rare and invaluable experience of performing side-by-side with professional musicians.

For those who have yet to witness the harmonious blend of youthful exuberance and seasoned artistry, the upcoming "Sounds of Life" event promises to be an unforgettable musical journey. Join the U.S. Army Orchestra for an evening that applauds the achievements of young artists and the vibrant future of classical music.
