The Festival is intended for talented high school singers looking for an exceptional musical experience. You won’t want to miss this opportunity. High school conductors from all over Western New York will register singers from their programs to take part. The event will culminate with a closing concert of: the invited high school ensembles (Fairport High School Polyphonic Choir & Grand Island High School Choir) and a festival choir comprised of all singers under the direction of Professor Brandon Johnson. The concert is free and open to the public.

Students interested in attending Houghton College the following year may audition for a music scholarship. If students are interested in auditioning for a music scholarship in voice, piano or another instrument while on campus for the Festival, they may arrange to do so by calling the Music Office at 1-585-567-9400.

If you would like your ensemble to be considered for the 2009 Invitational Choral Festival, or for more information, please contact Christopher Aitken.
