Three Music Disciplines Offered
1) Most students will be part of the Festival Choir. Whether participants sing in a school choir or just enjoying singing at home and church, the Festival will enrich their singing skills and appreciation for music.
2) The Festival Band is an option for students that play an instrument. This concentrated music experience will motivate students to become better musicians and rededicate their love for instrumental music.
3) The Festival Orchestra is a new option for students that play string instruments. They will join with accomplished musicians from Northwest Arkansas to accompany the Festival Choirs in the finale concert.
Festival Culminates in Concert
The Music Festival will end on Saturday night with an unforgettable concert for the community. The Festival Choir, Band and Orchestra; OAA Chorus; and Mass Choir of the Ozarks will join together for an evening of Holiday music.
