VMEA Honors Choir
The VMEA Honors Choir provides an opportunity for the top singers in the state to rehearse challenging music and work with a distinguished choral conductor at an advanced level. Only seniors are eligible to audition for this highly selective choir, as the top 20-25 of each voice part are selected to participate.
For the 2019-2020 school year, auditions will be held Saturday, October 12, 2019 at Longwood University in Farmville, VA. The audition fee is usually between $15-$18. Those selected to participate will also be expected to pay the participation fee with some help from our Choral Guild Booster Organization.
THIS YEAR: You WILL be EXPECTED to find your own ride to/from Longwood University for the audition.
COST: The cost of the festival weekend is $250 per student. Depending on how many students make the ensemble the Choral Guild is prepared to pay a portion, if not all, of this fee up to $500 combined for all students.
The event will be a part of the Virginia Music Educators Association In-service Conference, November 21-23, 2019 in Staunton, VA and final performance is at The Homestead in Hot Springs, VA.
