Wednesday morning I went to the press conference announcing the International American Choral Festival that will come to St. Louis November 17-21, 2010. Powell Hall will serve as one of the venues for the Festival, which you can learn more about on the Regional Art Commission's website and watch a cool video. Click here. There may be anywhere from 2,000 to 3,000 participants, with all varieties of choral music represented. My favorite quote from the press conference: "...not that there's anything wrong with Grandma's choir..."
