Treble Choir Festival hosted by Minnesota Valley Women's Chorale

Choral festival featuring three ISD 196 women's choirs and the Minnesota Valley Women's Chorale

Join us on Saturday, February 10th at 7:00 pm for the 2nd Annual Treble Choir Festival at the Eastview High School Performing Arts Center in Apple Valley. The Minnesota Valley Women’s Chorale (MVWC), directed by Judy Sagen, will be hosting three choirs from ISD 196: Ragazze Cantati from Apple Valley High School, directed by Amy Jo Cherner; Elektra from Eastview High School, directed by Kari Douma; and Bel Canto from Eagan High School, directed by Jim Cox. Each choir will perform individually, concluding with two mass numbers joining the voices of over 230 women.

A variety of music highlighting the beauty of women’s voices will be performed. The goal of the festival is to promote collaboration and learning among the choirs and to encourage lifelong singing in young women. The MVWC is a local community choir consisting of a diverse group of women of all ages, many of whom grew up or currently reside in District 196. The choir was recently voted one of the Top 5 Community Choirs in Minnesota!

This concert is open to the public and free to attend. Donations will be accepted at the end of the concert, with proceeds funding college scholarships for high school students.
