The Medford Cultural Arts Commission is seeking talented high school musicians to participate in its young artists in concert On Friday, April 20, at 7:30 p.m. at the Lord of Life Lutheran Church in Tabernacle.
This program is designed to showcase the area’s highest level of talented high school performers and will include instrumentalists, vocalists, and pianists performing everything from Bach to Broadway selections.
All high school students residing in the Lenape Regional High School District, and who attend public or private school, are eligible to apply. All applicants should be instrumentalists, pianists, and vocalists who have studied privately and/or have acquired some onstage solo experience.
Each applicant is asked to submit an application listing the most recent musical accomplishments, along with a recommendation from an instructor.
In addition to providing the young artists with a large and appreciative audience, this concert offers an opportunity for them to get some extra use from that solo that was used for regional tryouts or perhaps a college audition.
It also enables the student a means of testing out a piece before a crucial audition, a technique many experienced musicians have used successfully. Since performers are not permitted to use taped accompaniments, each participant must provide a personal accompanist.
At the conclusion of the concert all performers will receive a certificate of appreciation for their participation.
Applications are available at the Medford Township Recreation Department or may be obtained via email at YAIC12@aol.com.
All applications must be returned by March 31.
Direct all questions to the above email address or contact Dr. Anthony Femiano at (609) 654–1855.
