Posted

Registration for the 50th annual Showalter Music Festival, scheduled for Saturday, Feb. 1, is now open. The event is open to brass, woodwind, percussion, guitar, vocal, and piano students who are in grades five through eight. The cost per entry is $12 and includes a six-minute performance slot with brief adjudicator comments for the performers.

School and studio directors are responsible for registering students for the festival. Parents of interested students are asked to coordinate with their school’s music department or private studio director to be added to their registration roster. The deadline to register is Wednesday, Jan. 15, and all related information can be found at northwestmusic.org/showalter-music-festival/.

The festival concludes with an awards ceremony and free afternoon concert in the Nelson Performing Arts Center Auditorium featuring the day’s outstanding performers.

The festival is named in memory of Dr. Victor Showalter, former professor of music at Northwest College who started the festival in 1975.

For more information, contact Festival Director Dr. Zach Paris at music@mwc.edu.
