The National Federation of Music Clubs sponsors performing opportunities and competitive events where students from pre-primary through artist level can win awards and scholarships. This past weekend, Florida Federation of Music Clubs held their State Competition in Jacksonville, at the University of North Florida. Of special honor, Tong Wu was invited to perform on the Opening Recital as he was the recipient of the Casey Lisk Memorial scholarship winner last year.
