MARK YOUR CALENDARS FOR THE 27TH ANNUAL USOMC
February 18 - 24, 2019

Greetings from the President Dear Parents, Teachers, Students and Friends: Welcome to our 26th Annual United States Open Music Competition. We are
happy to see you here. Each year we continue to expand! This year more than
1,500 contestants have come from around the world to participate at the
USOMC; with a total of 2620 entries in 171 events. What a joy it is to see all
the smiling faces and to hear so many terrifically talented performances. Thank
you for coming!
To celebrate our 26th anniversary, we are happy to continue with the two
additional special prizes for our 2018 annual competitions. (1) There will be
extra monetary awards of $6000 from the Samuel Tak Lee Scholarship
Foundation given in memory of Dr. Billy Loo Sr. at the six Prize Winners’
Concerts. (2) There will also be a Master Class on Sunday Feb. 25th from 2:00 –
5:00 PM presented by Dr. Sharon Mann at her Concert Studio in Berkeley,
California. Five winners and alternate winners will be chosen from different
events who are Winners of the 2018 USOMC Music Competitions, between the
ages of 14 – 16. They will also receive additional monetary awards.
Performing in a music competition can be a real challenge. It is not the same as running in the Olympics, where
we can all see who crossed the finish line first. There is no such finish line here. In a music competition,
musicality, artistry, technique, accuracy, poise, remaining faithful to the intent of the composer – these are
some of the key elements which contribute to a great performance. Just to get to this level of performance
requires three main essentials: (1) hours of practice each day, (2) learning to keep performance anxiety to a
minimum, and (3) being in good health. Combine these factors with the fact that judges may vary in their
opinions of how a particular piece ought to sound, and you begin to see the difficulties which can occur in
choosing a winner. We do our best to help minimize such difficulties in several ways. We provide a relaxed
venue to perform at, with the very best pianos available and in the very best condition. We hire only the very
best judges we can find, and we write guidelines to assist them in their decision-making. As usual, we will
announce the winners immediately after each of the 171 events. Unlike other competitions which strive to find
one winner among many contestants, we prefer to have smaller groups of contestants and award prizes to the
best in each group. In this way, we are hoping to offer awards to numerous outstanding performers and to give
many of the contestants extra encouragement and inspiration to continue their pursuit of musical excellence.
We know how highly important music education is to the growth and development of our younger generation.
Every student is a winner just for being here, to receive invaluable comments from esteemed judges and to
meet and listen to 1500 contestants perform – are terrific learning opportunities and that should inspire the
students to work harder – medals and ribbons are of secondary importance in reality.
Board members, staff and volunteers work hard all year to host this event. They donate their time and energy
out of love of music and the desire to provide good experiences for the contestants, families, teachers, and
friends who attend. If you are able, we welcome you to join us in our endeavors. If you have ideas or opinions
about how we can improve USOMC, please let me know directly, or speak with any one of the dedicated board
members. We like feedback and are continuously trying to improve the competitions.
We sincerely hope all the contestants will be encouraged to continue working hard and to come back and
perform again next year.
Sincerely,
Lamae Loo
President

In addition, two to five (2-5) alternate winners will also be selected for the Master Class.
An alternate may be invited to perform if a winner is unable to attend. In that case, the
alternate will receive a scholarship of $100.00 with a certificate of recognition as a

Master Class with Dr. Sharon Mann
Berkeley, CA on Sunday Feb 25, 2 – 5PM
To commemorate the 26th Anniversary of the United States Open Music Competition, the
Board of Directors of the USOMC is presenting a special Master Class with pianist, Dr.
Sharon Mann.
Five (5) qualified winners will be chosen by our 2018 Adjudicators from among the
winners of the 2018 USOMC, who are 14 to 16 years old. If chosen, they will perform at
the Master Class and each will receive a scholarship of $100.00 with a certificate of
recognition. The winners will be notified on Wednesday, Feb. 21st, 2018 at 9 pm.
In addition, two to five (2-5) alternate winners will also be selected for the Master Class.
An alternate may be invited to perform if a winner is unable to attend. In that case, the
alternate will receive a scholarship of $100.00 with a certificate of recognition as a
winner. If all five winners are able to perform, the alternate winners will each receive a
cash award of $50 and a certificate of recognition just for attending as audiences. The
alternate winners will also be notified on Wednesday, Feb. 21st, 2018 at 9 pm. Each will
be told which piece to use for the Master Class, if a winner (or winners) is unable to
perform
If chosen, USOMC requires return emails from the parents of the winners and the alternate
winners, confirming that their sons/daughters will be able to attend and ready to perform the
designated pieces. If USOMC does not receive a return email by 10 AM on Thursday, Feb.
22nd, that winner’s place will be automatically cancelled for attending the Master Class.
