Online voters cast 22,500 votes to select the finalists who will take center stage with the
RSO to perform live at the March 12, 2011 Pops concert. That night, the audience will
vote to determine who will become the RSO Star. The winner will be the featured
performer with the orchestra during the RSO’s Independence Day Spectacular in July and
will receive a $1,000 cash prize.
The RSO Star competition gives local amateur musicians the opportunity to perform at
the Coronado Performing Arts Center with the Rockford Symphony Orchestra. Following
auditions in September 2010, thirteen semi-finalists were selected and then narrowed to
eight finalists after a public vote on the RSO website.
RSO Star is part of the Rockford Health System Pops Series and is graciously sponsored
by Nadi Creative Branding Group.
