One Grand Prize Winner, who can come from either Division, wins $1,000 prize money and the opportunity to perform with the all-professional Lewisville Lake Symphony at its April concert. It is open to piano, strings, and winds. There are two rounds. The first is judged from audio files submitted by contestants. The second is a live audition before a panel of distinguished judges.
