At 3 p.m. on Sunday, February 15, five of OU's most promising music students will perform with the Oakland Symphony Orchestra (OSO) in the 18th Annual David Daniels Young Artists Concert. They are the winners of the 2014-2015 Oakland University Concerto Competition.
Associate Professor Gregory Cunningham, who is one of the competition's judges and the conductor of the OSO said, "The concerto competition is always fiercely contested and all of this year's finalists demonstrated great maturity, poise and artistry."

The OSO, Oakland University's orchestra-in-residence, will also perform Cockaigne (In London Town), op. 40 by Edward Elgar and Suite from The Firebird (1919) by Igor Stravinsky.
