16th Annual Newmarket Voice Festival

Date: Mon 7th Nov 2011
Time: (All day)

Details:
This year, the Newmarket Voice Festival, a sleeping giant, will be held November 7 to 12.  The Newmarket Voice Festival is in its 16th year, and has been fortunate over the years to attract some very distinguished, talented and accomplished adjudicators to assist the singers in their field of study.  This year the adjudicators are Ingemar Korjus, Jennifer Tung and Tom Oliver.

The Festival provides a wide variety of categories, representing many styles of singing and the music of many cultures.  Contestants range in age from eight years and under to university students, and are primarily from Aurora, Newmarket and other areas of York
Region.

With ever rising tuition costs for many of today's university students, the Festival supports the further development of the art of singing and of talented singers through the provision of awards, trophies and scholarships.  Scholarship recipients are chosen by the adjudicators, and the minimum award is $100 to $1,500 for the higher disciplines.

We encourage you to check the festival's website www.newmarketvoicefestival.com.
