Students benefit from interaction with musicians who have, or almost have, made it in the music industry. Written By: Pamela D. Knudson | 6:00 am, Feb. 12, 2021
Twenty-six Grand Forks middle and high school students auditioned and have been selected for the North Dakota American Choral Directors Association Middle Level Honors Choir.
Last fall, 403 students in grades 7, 8 and 9 from 51 schools throughout North Dakota submitted auditions, vying for 190 singing slots and 60 alternate positions.
They were selected to participate in a day-long virtual Zoom session, held Feb. 5, which allowed them to work with and learn from clinicians and artists who are pursuing a career or achieved fame in a music career. Normally, students would gather in a North Dakota city for workshops and a concert performance, but the pandemic made only a virtual gathering possible, said Geoff Mercer, music teacher at Grand Forks Central High School.
