JSU Song Festival
The annual JSU Song Festival has been hosted at Jackson State University for several years. It is a rich, longstanding tradition in the community. Choirs from all over the great state of Mississippi and beyond come together to celebrate choral excellence and beautiful singing. It is an opportunity for high school and middle school choirs to perform for each other in a supportive and encouraging environment. Ensembles receive thoughtful insight and coaching from our incredible guest clinician, serving to celebrate the excellence of each choir while also offering tips for development.
The Song Festival also features a Vocal Solo Competition for high school juniors and seniors, with the winner receiving a partial scholarship to Jackson State University. Please mark your calendars to be a part of this incredible experience!
