Christ Church Easton announces auditions for its 2017-2018 Choral Scholars program. Now in its eighth year, the program offers gifted high school and college students the opportunity to sing a diverse body of musical literature spanning multiple centuries and musical styles. The program is designed to provide excellence in training and reward deserving students with opportunities to expand their background in music while earning a monthly stipend intended to make possible additional cultural opportunities.
As part of the experience, students enrolled as Christ Church Choral Scholars are exposed to singing on an advanced level in both small and large group settings. They also participate in a cappella singing to music accompanied by small ensembles and orchestra. Additionally, scholars are entitled to professional vocal lessons as a benefit of their admission to the program. In recent years, scholars have had the opportunity to participate in a variety of cultural opportunities as well, including performing at Bruton Parish in Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia and choral festivals in Ocean Grove, New Jersey and regionally.
Auditions are now ongoing, and the deadline to apply is September 14. For more information or to schedule an audition, contact music director Wes Lockfaw at 410-822-2677 or email [email protected].
