U of A Children's Choir to Hold Auditions
The University of Arkansas Children's Choir is looking for young people in grades 2-12 who love to sing!
The University of Arkansas Children's Choir began in 1997 and has grown to be one of the most distinguished youth choral programs in the region. This group of over 100 students focuses on singing a diverse selection of choral music, including pieces from a variety of languages and cultures. Singers in the program also learn performance skills, sight singing, ear training and music theory.
In addition to their regularly scheduled concerts, the 2015-16 UA Children's Choir sang the National Anthem at Razorback Basketball games, performed with the UA Symphony Orchestra and Collegiate Choirs in their production of Boito, sang with singer/songwriter Jim Brickman at the Walton Arts Center, and went on tour in New York City.
Auditions will be held in July and August. Rehearsals are held every Thursday evening, beginning Sept. 9, on the U of A campus.
To schedule and audition or for more information, email Rachel Cornett at uacc@uark.edu.
