To: Choral Festival Participants
Fr: Mrs. Clark Re: Nashville Catholic Youth Choral Festival This Sunday, October 20, is the first annual Catholic Youth Choral Festival, hosted by Pope John Paul II High School! All activities will be in the auditorium. Please be at JPII at 12:30 for registration. Rehearsals begin at 1:00. Parents do not need to stay during rehearsal time. The concert is at 5:00 p.m. and will conclude at 5:30 p.m. There is no cost for this event and everyone is invited! Please invite friends and family to our concert! It will be an amazing showcase, featuring over 100 voices from our parochial schools. SINGERS NEED TO WEAR BLACK SKIRT OR PANTS AND A WHITE SHIRT OR SWEATER. If skirts are short, black leggings or tights must be worn. No heels, clunky shoes or shoes that make a lot of noise. Singers will be standing most of the time - be comfortable. We have been working on our music but our rehearsal time has been limited. Students do have copies of music and a CD that they can use to practice. Singers – please be listening and practicing! By way of clarification, the purpose of this choral festival is to provide an opportunity for 6th, 7th & 8th grade choral students in the diocese to sing together, building their musicianship and our community, while celebrating God’s gift of music in all of us. It is an opportunity to learn, collaborate and perform together. Please let me know if you have any questions or need additional information. |
