Participant quotes:

"It's a fun day filled of meeting new people, working with great conductors, and of course the joy and fulfillment from the concert...My most memorable experience has to be the soloist for Amazing Grace. It made me realize how powerful music and the voice can be...The Honor Chorus is so important for NYC kids because for many it is their first personal experience as a musician. The Honor Chorus can spark a new interest or talent that can be further explored after the Festival is over."
