Eagle Choral Day
Join the Asbury University Music Department for our annual EAGLE CHORAL DAY on Tuesday, September 27, 2022. High school choral directors may bring 4-5 quartets from their choirs to join the Asbury University singers for a day that includes collaborative choral adventures, performance opportunities, and preparation for the 2022 all-state choir auditions.
With state-of-the-art media film production capabilities, each high school will create a choral commercial to showcase singers. The Eagle Choral Day will be led by Dr. Sue Ellen Ballard, assisted by additional music faculty members and Asbury University students.
Arrival time is 9 a.m. and the day closes after a 6:30 pm concert in Asbury University’s Hughes Auditorium. Registration is $15 (includes t-shirt, lunch, dinner & swag bag).
