2008 CSUS Scholarship Recipients

Bruce reports on the annual Scholarship Concert:



On Saturday, February 23, 2008, at 8:00 pm, at the California State University, Sacramento, Department of Music, Music Recital Hall, the Sacramento Saturday Club held its 2008 CSUS Scholarship Recipients Award concert. On an annual basis, the Sacramento Saturday club provides the CSUS Music Department with $5,000.00 in scholarship funds. Faculty members and a competitive jury process determine the scholarship recipient awardees. The gifted music students who received the scholarships this year are: Kristen Bluemel, Deborah Cardoza, Dakin Chamberlain, Marilyn Clark, George Hayes, Hans Hoffer, Noah Ryan, and David Wuchter.










All of the young students gave deserving performances. Please see the accompanying program notes and biographies for further information. It is an honor and a privilege to be able to help these students achieve their musical goals. In the long term, these students will contribute to the rich cultural arts legacy that Sacramento has fostered these many years.

I hope to see you at the March 2008 concert, which will be held on Saturday, March 15th, and features the voice students of Jacqueline Victorino. Please see your newsletter for the concert location and directions.
