The
20th Annual Sphinx Competition takes place in Detroit, MI from February
8-12, 2017. Sphinx invites 18 of the most talented Black and Latino
string musicians (violin, viola, cello, and string bass). Applicants up
to age 30 are now eligible to apply.

The
Sphinx Competition features two exciting concerts of our Junior and
Senior division laureates. In addition, the Sphinx Symphony Orchestra
welcomes the University of Michigan Men's Glee Club and Maestro Eugene
Rogers as they perform a newly composed work titled "Seven Last Words of
the Unarmed." A powerful, multi-movement work by Atlanta-based composer
Joel Thompson, the song uses the last words of black male victims of
police violence as its emotional centerpiece.
