We just found out that Aytahn Benavi, competed at the “Domain Forget” guitar festival in Quebec, Canada. Although only 16, Aytahn competed in the college division, playing “Caprice 1” by Mario Castlenuevo Tedesco, “Etude 12” by H. Villa Lobos and “Joyful Island” by Angelo Gilardino. He won 1st prize! This includes an honorarium, full tuition next year and a concert at the festival! Congratulations to Aytahn on his well-deserved awards! Aytahn began in the Childbloom Program at age 5 with Chris Stone. He is currently studying with Childbloom Founder, Kevin Taylor.
