Honor Choirs are the Future

We have no scientific data to support this, but it seems reasonable to guess that many (dare one say “most”?) current choral conductors were at one point in their very young lives singers in an honor choir.  The present writer was certainly one of those kids; weren’t you?

 

But what about the next wave of choral musicians?

 

There is the possibility that a potential Weston, Eph, or Robert is sitting in your classroom this semester.  Are you going to give that young choral mind the incredible experience that launches them to the musical moon by helping them apply for an ACDA honor choir?

 

During the upcoming national conference, the American Choral Directors Assoiation will offer FIVE exceptional honor choir experiences that will involve a wide range of students:

     Children's Honor Choir

     Middle School/Junior High School Boy's Honor Choir

     Middle School/Junior High School Girl's Honor Choir

     High School Mixed Honor Choir

     College/Community Latin American Honor Choir

 

There is a great deal of information about this offering at your fingertips, including basic data, audition hints, conductor bios, and the application.

 

Have you been thinking about an application for one of your students?  Well, it’s time to stop thinking and START DOING.  The deadline for honor choir applications is 11:59 p.m. (CDT) on TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30.

 

APPLY NOW.
