The second annual All School Choral Music Festival is scheduled for Wednesday at Backus Community Center. The event is made possible by a grant from The Otto Bremer Foundation and is sponsored by Citizens for Backus/AB.
Tamara Koenig, Falls High School choral director, is organizer of the event. She is assisted by music instructors Aron Bohnert, Littlefork and Stacey Ottemann, Indus.
Approximately 125 choral students from International Falls, Littlefork-Big Falls and Indus are expected to participate. The festival gives students the opportunity to rehearse with students from other schools and perform under the direction of additional music instructors.
Following rehearsals on festival day, the choirs will present a concert at 12:45 p.m. in Backus Auditorium. Individual school choirs and a massed choir will perform.
The public is welcome to attend the concert. There is no admission charge. Free-will donations will be accepted.
