WALES – Voices of Color, Oak Hill High School’s 16-voice select women’s choir, has successfully auditioned for a place in the National Women’s Choral Festival to be held March 4 to 7 at Carnegie Hall in New York City.

The Voices of Color will join top treble choirs from across America in three days of rehearsals under the baton of Dr. Z. Randall Stroope from the University of Nebraska, culminating in a final concert at Carnegie Hall. Students will prepare a selection of classical choral works by Delibes, Galuppi, Stroope and other composers.

Oak Hill’s singers will also have the opportunity to experience the culture and sights of New York City, attending a Broadway musical and visiting the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and other landmarks.

“This event represents a really outstanding educational opportunity for our students,” said Oak Hill High School music director John Neal. “Experiencing music at this level of professional performance and performing at Carnegie Hall will be a highlight of their high school singing careers.”

Voices of Color is seeking individual, business and corporate sponsorships in support of the trip.
