VOCE - Vocalists, Orchestral Instruments, Chamber Music, Ensembles The purpose of this program is to open new channels for expanded opportunities and incentives for teachers and coaches. Also to inspire top caliber students toward their highest standard of achievement through competing at the local level.

COMPOSERS TODAY
Composers Todays is a program designed to assist and encourage teachers to include composition in their curriculum. It provides both students and teachers an opportunity to have their compositions evaluated by qualified judges or evaluators and heard in public performance. It is the capstone to being a complete musician.
