ABOUT THE CONCERTO COMPETITION
In 1951, Marcia Specht was the first La Sierra student invited to perform as a soloist with the La Sierra College Orchestra, then directed by Alfred Walters. A student of Ralph Pierce, noted concert pianist and adjunct professor of music at La Sierra, Marcia played the first movement of Piano Concerto #1 by Ludwig van Beethoven. Following her graduation from the Loma Linda University School of Nursing in 1954, she married Fritz Guy, La Sierra College class of 1952.
After her death in 2006, Marcia’s family and friends established the Marcia Specht Guy Prize, awarded each year to the winner of the Music Department’s annual concerto competition, to honor her memory and to encourage student performance of classical music.
