IACS Fall Music Festival
The IACS is sponsoring their first-ever Fall Music Festival on Friday, October 29, 2021 hosted by Indiana Christian Academy in Anderson, IN. Skilled, guest conductors/clinicians will be present to work with choir and band students from IACS schools around the state, culminating in a combined concert that evening. School Music Directors are encouraged to support this student opportunity by preparing their student musicians for participation.
The purpose of the IACS Fall Music Festival is to: 1) develop students' musicianship; 2) build positive relationships among student musicians from IACS member schools; and 3) promote excellence for the glory of God.
Repertoire has been carefully chosen by the guest conductors (4-6 for choirs, 3-4 for bands), each of which are designed to challenge students to new levels of performance. Selections will include a blend of sacred and secular, for general use and Christmas, all of which will represent the best in choral and instrumental music. Students will rehearse together throughout the day and present a concert to friends and family members at 7 pm that evening in the auditorium at Grace Baptist Church. After the festival, school Music Directors may program selected pieces from the event on their Christmas and Spring concerts.
This year's guest clinicians are Dr. David Brown, Music Faculty member at Maranatha Baptist University in Watertown WI, and Mr. David Shaleen, Music Director at Northside Baptist Church and Northside Christian School in Charleston, SC.
