DCG Choral Festival

We are excited to announce our 3rd Annual DCG Choral Festival on Monday, April 28, 2025. This event features groups from all classes to participate in a non-competitive Choral Festival aimed to prepare you and your students for IHSMA Large Group. This years clinicians are: Dr. Andrew Last (Luther), Dr. Tim McMillian (DMMO/Simpson), and Prof. Luke Lovegood (Coe).  Past clinicians have included Dr. Tim McMillin, Dr. Mark Babcock, Dr. Jon Arnold, and Dr. James Thompson.

Each group will get 20 minutes to take the stage, perform, and get cliniced. After 20 minutes, each group will move to a clinic room where they will work with another clinician that watched your performance to continue giving you more feedback. These clinicians will all be college level directors that will help you dig into your music and prepare for IHSMA Large Group. 

Each group will also receive a comment and score sheet in order to have some numerical feedback to work with. This is a non-competitive festival. No group will know any other group's scores. This will just give you the ability to have written feedback and some numbers to help you prioritize the needs of your groups.

Before or after performing, we encourage schools to watch other groups perform in order to help build up a community fostering support and excellence in choral music!
