Congratulations to Isabella Jayme for winning this year’s Sally Paxson Davis Memorial Vocal Scholarship. Isabella is a student of voice coach, Stephanie O’Dea at Darlington Arts Center in Garnet Valley, PA. Isabella’s song choices were Handel’s Bel Piacere and Goodnight My Someone from Music Man. Accompanying Isabella on piano was Dawn Stevens.
Annual Sally Paxson Davis scholarship auditions are held at Darlington Arts Center every fall and is open to voice students ages 14-20 in the Delaware Valley region. The scholarship covers voice lessons at the center for the Spring 2010 semester.
