The Larry L. Walker Prizes are named after long-time (1961-2000) instrumental teacher Larry L. Walker. The Prize has gone through name iterations since its inception in 2000 as The Larry L. Walker Band Prize. In 2016 the award was split into The Larry L. Walker Prize for Jazz Ensemble and The Larry L. Walker Prize for Orchestral Music. The original description for the prize "is awarded to the student who has made outstanding contributions to one or more of the music ensembles."
