REHEARSAL AIDS
No audition needed to join the Metropolitan Choral Festival choir.
All singers age 14 to adult are welcome to sing with us! We especially encourage students to join the festival chorus for an amazing summer experience.
Rehearsals begin the Sunday after the July 4th holiday and continue twice a week until the performace at the end of August.
We understand that summer is also a time for travel and vacation, so we ask that if you miss rehearsal, you continue to prepare vocally on your own.
Registration Fees include music.
-
$125 Individual fee

$50 Student fee

Scholarships available
