The Huntsville Festival of Music will host over 30 local students and groups who will perform in a variety of musical categories including Piano, solo/duet instrumental, solo voice, choral, and composition classes with genres ranging from classical to contemporary. Participants will perform for professional adjudicators who will provide feedback and assign grades. The highest score in each class may be awarded a gift or cash prize during the “Concert of the Stars” on March 5th.
Audiences are welcome to attend performances throughout the day on March 2nd at Trinity United Church (33 Main St E )and St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church (1 High St.). Admission is free. The full schedule can be seen here.
High-scoring participants will be chosen to perform for the gala concert, “Concert of the Stars” at the Algonquin Theatre on March 5th at 2 pm. Tickets are $28.25 for general admission and $11.30 for youth, and can be purchased here.
