Percussionists Christopher Chamberlain (marimba) and Brandon Lefrancois (xylophone) are the 2015 recipients of the Ron W. Ianni Memorial Scholarship in Music Performance.
The two, both students of professor Nicholas Papador, joined forces to perform the rhythmic and intricate work Carousel before a full house at the Music Building on Sunday afternoon.
Nine musicians representing each instrument area competed for the scholarship after attaining top grades in the December performance juries. The $500 annual award is open only to full-time students enrolled in a music degree program. It was established by Mina Grossman-Ianni, who was on hand to enjoy the performances, and the School of Music in 2005 to honour the late president of the University of Windsor (1983-1996).
A panel of three jurors—Philip Adamson, Jonathan Bayley and Elspeth Maynard—assessed the finalists and announced the winner at the conclusion of the recital.
