The University of Alabama in Birmingham's Choral Masterworks Festival – The festival is geared toward providing an outstanding musical experience for 4 talented young singers in Grissom Choir.  The purpose of this event is to create a musical experience that your students may not otherwise have during regularly scheduled school events, and other extracurricular activities. The 2022 chosen masterwork is Michael John Trotta’s Requiem. This 35-minute, multi-movement work will be a world premiere performance, exclusively written for this event! Your students will receive electronic copies of the music and practice tracks ahead of time, and will be expected to be familiar with the music at the first rehearsal. Please note that all state, local, and university COVID 19 safety protocols will be followed.
