Each year, thousands of participants and hundreds of ensembles take part in the annual national festival finals known as MusicFest Canada. All participating Ensemble Directors are encouraged to nominate one Honour Candidate from each Ensemble participating at MusicFest Canada. Each student awarded “Honour Recognition” receives an honour plaque, and their name is posted on the MusicFest Canada website and distributed to national and local media.
