Sep 30, 2013 /prREACH/ -- Sisters Sarah and Solene Le Van are proof that studying music and performing build a strong foundation for a successful, exciting future. Recent high school graduates, both are attending Princeton University this fall, where they each received a full four-year scholarship. They will study music and creative writing. “I know that part of the reason we were accepted was because of our art portfolios,” said Solene. Solene and Sarah have studied voice with Jennifer Paterson, Founder and President of California Music Studios where music students of all ages are matched with private teachers. Training for university scholarships auditions is key to successfully attaining these lucrative awards. Angelina Mafi, another student who has taken voice lessons through California Music Studios has gone on to college as a music major at St. Mary's, Moraga, CA, campus. She has received $37,000 in scholarships--renewing annually--primarily for her musical talents as well as for her honors status, which also qualified her for the Presidential scholarship. Her father, Eugene Mafi added that the investment in lessons with voice instructor, Carrie Rothenberger at California Music Studios have paid for themselves,“Our daughter was trained well so that she could qualify for these scholarships, and in that sense, the lessons we paid for have been returned in full.”
