"SING AND MAKE MUSIC IN YOUR HEART TO THE LORD." Ephesians 5:19
The FestivalIT’S TWO DAYS OF GREAT MUSIC AND FUN! A Saturday practice and a Sunday afternoon worship concert under the baton of a distinguished guest director. Participants will taste the richness of sacred choral music in a fun setting with other children and young people who love to sing.
Open to all students in grades 3 through 9 from any faith community, the festival is held on the campus of Goshen College in Goshen, Indiana. It culminates in a Sunday afternoon 2 o’clock concert in the college’s critically acclaimed 900-seat Sauder Concert Hall. The children prepare for the festival by listening to music and learning the sheet music sent to them. In some geographic areas where enough children have registered for the event, group practices are also held in the weeks leading up to the festival. |
