Registrant­s may participat­e in the Festival Chorus or Concert Band and also join a smaller ensemble, such as trombone choir, steel pan ensemble, new worship ensemble, chamber music or handbell choir.

Two free public concerts will be presented each day and on the morning of July 30. Meal plans and on-campus housing are available. The early bird registrati­on rate for adults ends June 1.
