Auditions for Lawrence Honor Recital Highlight Youth Talent
The Lawrence Arts Center Honor Recital invites junior high and high school students from Lawrence or with Lawrence teachers to perform pieces up to ten minutes. About 43 entrants compete, with community organizers noting rising dedication and nerves as two veterans Jian and Masa Ohtake aim to advance again. Jian began piano at five, studies with KU professor Jack Winebrick, and hopes piano remains a lifelong pursuit while planning a medical career.

Auditions Bring Jazz Artists to Lawrence Arts Center
Ohtake and Jian audition for the KU Jazz Festival and History Day in Kansas City. Ohtake, born in Japan, pursued piano before switching to trombone and aims for music performance and education. Jian arrives early, performs scales, and hopes her History Day success leads to the recital selection. Both face a demanding, packed day and celebrate later with lists confirming their spots among the chosen 11.
