Orange County students win in Brownsville competition

Two Orange County student groups won awards  in March  in the prestigious Brownsville Guitar Ensemble competitions earlier this month.  Members of the Chapman Guitar Quartet (under the direction of Jeff Cogan) won two first place awards for Best Quartet and Best Duo, and Gregg Goodhart's students from Servite High School took second place in their Quartet division.   Congratulations to these wonderful musicians and their teachers on an impressive performance!
