The H. B. Goodlin Foundation Board proudly announces the 2021 H. B. Goodlin Virtual Festival, an online, video-based event, in which students will submit video recordings of their performances for review by a panel of judges. We are excited to be able to offer this event to support and reach out to the music students in San Diego County. We believe that the 2021 H. B. Goodlin Virtual Festival will honor and reward the hard work and talent of the San Diego County music students.
The format of the Virtual Festival follows the social distancing requirements that we all must practice at this time. We believe that the submission of video recordings following the guidelines below will provide a suitable performance under our current circumstances. It is our hope that the event encourages students to continue with their music studies and work toward a goal of musical excellence during these difficult times.
