Since 1946, the Musical Merit Foundation of Greater San Diego has held a yearly competition for instrumentalists and vocalists.
Competition winners (protégés) have demonstrated extraordinary education, prodigious talent and skill.
Many of our protégés are currently studying in prestigious universities and conservatories, or performing professionally in
symphonies and opera companies throughout the world.
Our 1st Protégé for May is mezzo-soprano
Guadalupe Paz.
Guadalupe is a 3-time winner in the Musical Merit Foundation auditions.
