About the Delaware ACDA Children's Honor Choir Festival

AllThe 2020 Delaware ACDA Children’s Honor Choir Festival will be held on March 13 & 14, 2020 at Newark High School. Our guest conductor this year will be Christy Elsner, the Founder and Artistic Director of the Allegro Choirs of Kansas City. She is an active clinician for children’s, youth, and treble choirs, frequently gives workshops on innovative rehearsing and has conducted many state, regional, and national honor choirs.

All choir members in grades 4-6  are invited to audition at school to be a part of this festive weekend for treble voices. Each attending school is only allowed to send 14 students to the event. Participants need to pay a nonrefundable $45 registration fee. These fees include; lunch, snacks and drinks for singers on Saturday, an Honor Choir t-shirt to be worn for the concert, octavos, and a practice recording (music/recordings will be sent to the director for distribution). Please note that attendance is required at ALL rehearsals on Friday and Saturday.

There will be a rehearsal on Friday, March 13 from 5:45-8:30pm and on Saturday, March 14 from 9:15-4:00pm. The festival concert will take place at 4:00pm and there will be a $5 admission fee for ages 6 and up.
