New in 2024 - Betty Phelan Memorial Piano Scholarship
The Betty Phelan Memorial Piano Scholarship, initiated by her daughter Carol MacKinnon-Hagan, recognizes and honours Betty’s life and her dedication and commitment to the music community of Edmonton, Alberta. Betty, as a well known piano teacher in Edmonton, taught hundreds of students over her nearly 60 year career. Her enthusiasm and passion for music was a gift that she took great joy in sharing with those many students who studied with her.
To honour Betty’s memory, an award of $300.00 will be given annually to the student(s) with the highest mark achieved in a Royal Conservatory ARCT Performance examination.
