Bethany College Hosts 2021 Pre-Audition Choral Workshop
October 1, 2021
Bethany College will be hosting a Pre-Audition Choral Workshop for select high school singers this week. The Bethania Pre-Audition Choral Workshop is specifically meant to help area high school students learn the three songs they sing to audition for the 2022 Kansas All-State Choir, which starts at a district level. If they are chosen in the district competition they will advance to the All- State Choir. Later in the fall, high school teachers and students will be given the specific audition excerpts from the songs they work on at the KMEA (Kansas Music Educators Association). Events like the Bethania Pre-Audition Choral Workshop give smaller schools access to the resources to perform the audition pieces, which are typically advanced.
Bethany College doesn't choose who attends; instead, Kansas high schools are invited, and the music directors of each school decide which students they will bring. Equally important, is that these students enjoy their time on the Bethany campus, and in working with the music department faculty, experience first hand everything the department has to offer.
In accordance with the current college policy, masks are required.Photos by Jim Turner and Elise Carter
