Three contestants have been selected to represent the AAA / USA at the Coupe Mondiale in the Junior International Virtuoso Entertainment division and one selected in the Virtuoso International Entertainment division.Naomi Harris of Spokane, Washington, was one of the three representatives for the Junior Division. Naomi is a student of Patricia Bartell in Spokane.

Sam Thomas will represent the AAA / USA in the Virtuoso International Entertainment division. Also from Spokane, WA, Sam is a student of Ilmar Kuljis.
