On April 14,  pianist Ian Parker closes Whitehorse Concerts' presenting season with The Beethoven Experience. So, of course, we want to give a lucky music-lover the chance to see the show for free.

Tell us which famed music school Mr. Parker received his Bachelor and Master of Music degrees, and you'll be entered in the draw for two tickets to the show on Saturday evening.

What a sweet way to celebrate a dynamic concert season (and spring!) 

Contest  closes on Friday, April 13 at noon. Good luck! 

Congratulations Micheal Pealow!  Micheal won two tickets for tomorrow night's Whitehorse Concerts presentation of Guy & Nadina—lucky man.

And knowledgable, too. It was a bit of a tricky question because the instrument does very closely resemble a french horn, but is, in fact, called a corno da caccia or cornet de cassio. 

Thanks for entering everyone. Keep your eyes peeled for our next contest. 

For your viewing pleasure,  Shit Musicians Say — yet another spoof of the original Shit Girls Say series. 

Stay warm and have a great weekend.  

Welcome to Monday friends—just another -40 day in the Yukon. Fortunately, we've got another contest to warm up your week. 

Tell us the correct name of this instrument . . . 

and you will be entered to win two tickets to the highly anticipated Guy & Nadina storytellers' recital presented by Whitehorse Concerts on Saturday, January 21.

Contest closes Thursday, January 19 at noon and we'll contact the winner shortly after. So all you music nerds, cultural aficionados and the curious alike, get your entries in. 

In a few short days (pun intended) is the winter solstice, and we'd like to celebrate this darkest of days with a contest. 

Enter to win your choice of two prizes: a two-hour branding consultation with aasman or a gift card from itunes. 

All you have to do is tell us what time the sun will set on December 21, 2011 in Whitehorse.

Correct answers will be entered in a draw and we'll randomly select the winner from our fancy contest hat (i.e. a plastic bag from Tags). 

Our solstice contest is now closed. A big thank you to everyone who entered, commented or just stopped by for a look. We'll reveal the results tomorrow. Stay tuned...

Carrie McClelland does!

Thank you to all who entered. Almost everyone knew that Caroline received her Bachelor of Music from UBC and those smarty-pants were entered in the draw. 

Don't be sad if you're not Carrie McClelland—there will be more opportunities to win Whitehorse Concert tickets (and other neat things) from Aasman in the future. 

Enjoy the show Carrie! (And all you future winners, have a great weekend, too.)

Aasman is proud to be a sponsor of the Classically Yours concert series from Whitehorse Concerts. The season line up looks fantastic and we're excited to share two tickets with you to the opening concert–soprano Caroline Drury-Márkos was raised in Whitehorse and preforms this Saturday, September 24 at the Yukon Arts Centre.

All you have to do is answer this question correctly:

Where did Caroline Drury-Márkos earn her Bachelor of Music?

The contest is now closed. Thank you for participating!

All correct answers will be put in a giant top hat (or a plastic bag) and the winner will be drawn at random. Contest closes on Thursday September 22 at 3 pm–we'll call you on Friday morning if you've won the draw.

Have you seen Caroline in concert before? Tell us about it.
