The Meg Quigley Vivaldi Competition and Bassoon Symposium is a three-day event dedicated to bassoon masterclasses, presentations, performances, and the live semi-final and final rounds of a competition for young women bassoonists from the Americas. The event, founded by Nicolasa Kuster and Kristin Wolfe Jensen will be held this year at the University of the Pacific in Stockton, California. MQVC was formerly held at the Oberlin Conservatory in Oberlin, Ohio.

The events of the symposium are open to all. The competition itself is for women bassoon players who are citizens of the Americas (North America, Central America, South America), or who are enrolled in school in the Americas during the year prior to the competition and who will not have reached their 24th birthday by the competition in January of 2012.
