After the first round, the finalists emerged: Rachael Harris, Meghan Mair, Ren Lamarche, Kavin Dhanasekaran, Lydia Lei, and Rachel Rotella.
In the grand finale, Lydia Lei (guzheng) and Kavin Dhanasekaran (piano) stood triumphant as the 2024 Laurier Concerto Competition winners.
Lydia's historic achievement as the first ever Guzheng winner and Kavin's representation as an outstanding first-year student added an extra layer of significance to this event.
