"MASNO is a priceless gem in a crown of New Orleans' energy. Every event that MASNO brings to life has such a magnetic charisma. Every person I've met at MASNO has been amazing and inspiring in so many ways. The entire experience makes the vibe of classical music scenery in New Orleans so unique, insightful, and distinctive. Bravo and live on MASNO!" - Alexandre Moutouzkine, 2004 Gold Medalist of the New Orleans International Piano Competition
"Since entering the NOIPC in 2005, and returning to win in 2006, I have never been treated so well by a musical community that is MASNO. Many competitions don't make the effort to maintain relationships with their artists and MASNO is a prime example on how this should be done. I'm excited for the future of this organization as it enters new and explorative chapters. Thanks for the love, MASNO!" - Dustin Gledhill, 2006 Gold Medalist of the New Orleans International Piano Competition
